The Institute of Engineering, Tribhuvan University has initiated a 2-year full-time masters program in mechanical engineering, titled M.Sc. Engineering in Mechanical Systems Design and Engineering (MS-MSDE), from April/May 2017. Engineers completing four years course in Bachelor in Mechanical/Industrial/Automobile/Aeronautical Engineering, or equivalent to Mechanical Engineering, will be eligible to apply for this program. This program will be run under Department of Mechanical Engineering, Pulchowk Campus, Lalitpur, Nepal.
The students in this program will develop high levels of analytical and critical skills and learn about the core mechanical methods, tools and techniques, understand their applications and limitations, and indulge in research in the fields of mechanical design, advanced numerical/computational techniques, energy engineering, mechanics and materials, air conditioning and refrigeration, automobile and heavy-equipment engineering, aerospace and aviation, project planning, industrial methods, and management, through highly progressive and innovative learning methods.
