In recent times, a good deal of anxious attention has been paid, all over the world, to the utter significance and direct influence of science and technology on our modern lifestyle. Twenty first century is indeed identified as the age of science and technology. Moreover, the progress of any country in the contemporary world depends entirely upon the improvement made by it in the field of technology. In this context, engineering education plays a meaningful and substantial role that cannot be excluded.

Of late, the Institute of Engineering (IOE), Tribhuvan University (TU) was the only institute responsible for imparting engineering education in Nepal which alone could not fulfill the growing demands of our nation. A large sum of national currency drifted out of the country in the name of engineering education.
