The present article highlights the importance of the English language in the career of the students of engineering both in global and local contexts. The main objective of this article is to explore the impact of English language on the career of the students of engineering all over the world in general and in Nepal in particular. Based primarily on the literature review for the necessary data, it reveals the fact that the English language is a most essential language for the students of engineering not only in Nepal but it is equally relevant in the global context as well. It suggests that there is widespread application of English language in the feld of engineering. Journal of the Institute of Engineering, 2015, 11(1): 182-188
This paper presents the findings of a research carried out on the impact of English language proficiency on the job grabbing process of the engineers in Nepal and a few other countries. Based mainly on the review of literature that were available in the internet websites, this paper sheds light on the facts that the English language proficiency is extremely important for the global engineers today. It reveals that the ability to communicate in English efficiently in their workplace is of paramount importance for engineers not only in Nepal but also in the other countries. In the present day context, the employers want to hire merely those candidates who possess sufficient proficiency in English.Journal of the Institute of Engineering, 2018, 14(1): 223-234
The present research article attempts to explore some facts about the importance of English language proficiency on the execution of engineering jobs all over the world in general and in Nepal in particular. Based mainly on the review of literature available in the internet and some other local resources, this paper highlights that English language proficiency is indispensable for the engineering graduates both outside and inside Nepal in the present day situation for the successful execution of engineering jobs. The findings reveal that mere technical knowledge about core engineering subjects may not suffice in the engineering area unless engineers are well-equipped with sufficient communication skills in English as engineering has inherent intimate relationship with English language as a medium worldwide.
Abstract:This article attempts to highlight the importance of English in the professional communication in the field of engineering in Nepal. The main objective of the article is to shed light on the role English language plays in the communication related to engineering. Based primarily on the review of some relevant literature available, the present article reveals the fact that English being one of the global languages used in a wide range of communicative fields all over the world, it serves as an important tool for professional communication in engineering in Nepal.
The present article discusses the importance of language, in general, and English, in particular, in the context of engineering education in Nepal. It mainly discusses the importance and application of language laboratory for the enhancement of skills and proficiency of English language in the learners of Bachelor's level in engineering in Nepal. The main objective of the present article is to highlight the importance of teaching and learning of English language in the B.E. level in engineering by using language laboratory. In course of the present study, literature available in different accessible sources was reviewed for collecting necessary data and designing theoretical framework for the same. From the study, it has been found that language laboratory is tremendously helpful in creating favourable atmoshphere for language learning and helping the learners to acquire necessary language skills useful to them in sharpening their study at present and streamlining their research and innovative activities in their further studies in the future. English language is now the language of worldwide communication, and therefore, it is very essential for the students of engineering to be proficient in communication through English not only for grabbing job opportunities open at present but also to furthering their future research and innovative endeavors and publishing their reports and research articles based on them. Language Laboratory is highly instrumental for attaining ample proficiency in English language, the means of global communication.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/jie.v10i1.10882Journal of the Institute of Engineering, Vol. 10, No. 1, 2014, pp. 94–103
