Bachelor of Electrical and Electronics Engineering

Bachelor in Electrical and Electronics Engineering

The Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering strives to be a centre of excellence in education, training and research, producing high quality engineers and researchers. In this endeavor, the department will continually develop knowledge and quality of staff, upgrade and create new laboratory facilities, revise the teaching program, acquire adequate new equipment to keep abreast, contribute and progress in the emerging technologies and committed for rendering the best service to the society.

School of Engineering has started Bachelor program in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from 2018.  PU, SoE’s Electrical and Electronics Engineering program is one of few most demanding course in the rapidly growing field of engineering and only one in serene city Pokhara (Western Region), educating the next generation of Electrical & Electronic Engineers, who will create the technology of tomorrow that work effectively and efficiently. Integrating both the knowledge of Electrical and Electronics, the course technically focuses on the application and design of equipment in electrical sector. Further, the program educates students in an academic environment through inter disciplinary projects and hands-on-learning. The confidence in managing new knowledge society requires continuous learning a novel approaches supported with research and development works in the areas of power and energy. Thus, the department’s vision and mission reflects this and my department joins me in meeting this mission by producing knowledgeable and committed technologists to serve our country and humanity as a whole. The hard work and sincerity are strong pillars of success. Through our practices we strive to impress our students to inculcate these values and support the mission of Faculty of Science & Technology, Pokhara University. I welcome our alumni to join hands in supporting our endeavors by all means of interaction. Our doors are always open to Universities, research organizations, industries and utility companies to collaborate with us in building valuable knowledge society foreseeing bright future.

Objectives:

We are committed to
