The graduates are well employed as there is ample scope for employment with the accelerating growth of the construction industry, hydroelectric projects, medium and small-scale industries, which demands the need for qualified and competent electrical engineers.
The analysis indicated that the conceptual and analytical skills of the graduates are commendable and the undergraduate programme at CST has greatly enhanced their capability to plan better and work independently. The tracer studies also show employers prefer CST graduates to graduates from other universities.
The programme is thus envisaged to strengthen and support the Human Resource Development goals of the Royal Government of Bhutan. The programme would also help in promoting and supporting the technical education programme in the country. With the country’s plan to generate 20,000MW in the future, the need for Electrical Engineering (EE) graduates will only increase over the years. Thus, the requirement of EE personnel is envisaged to increase in the coming years, indicating the requirement of this Programme.
