The Project for “Strengthening Engineering Education and Research for Industrial Development in Cambodia” is a JICA-funded project, which aims at introducing Laboratory Based Education (LBE) concept into Cambodian higher education institutes offering engineering program.

Laboratory Based Education (LBE) is widely being implemented in all the Japanese universities. This concept can simultaneously enhance research and education through involving students at different levels (Bachelor, Master and PhD) in conducting research, producing publications and patents.

The project aims at producing the following three outputs:

  • Capabilities of ITC to implement Laboratory Based Education (LBE) are developed
  • Capabilities of ITC to strengthen capacities of SRU and BBU in LBE are developed
  • University-Industry linkage is enhanced at ITC

The project is a five-year project (2019-2023) which is funded by JICA Cambodia office.
