Welcome to the American Society of Nepalese Engineers
American Society of Nepalese Engineers (ASNEngr) is a non-profit organization registered in the State of South
Carolina. The Society is organized and operated exclusively for charitable, scientific, and educational purposes
as set forth in section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. No part of the earnings of the Society may inure to
the benefit of, or be distributable to its members, officers or private persons.
The Society provides a platform for all people of Nepalese background and friends of Nepal who are engineers
and professionals in the closely related scientific and technical areas to come together, exchange ideas, share
knowledge, and pull financial, technical and other resources together for the benefit to and common good of
humanity. ASNEngr plans to organize technical and educational conferences, workshops, and undertake
engineering/scientific projects for the benefits of the human society. The Society, especially, looks forward to
conduct educational, other trainings and help to disadvantaged communities residing in the U.S., Nepal and
other countries according to their needs to the extent possible within the resources available to the Society. The
Society has plans to assist with financial fund raising, voluntary technical and other possible supports to
communities worldwide during the natural disasters such as hurricanes, earthquakes, floods, etc. To this end,
ASNEngr has already formed an Earthquake Preparedness Committee that will develop the emergency
preparedness and disaster relief strategy and programs in Nepal. The Society is also planning to engage in
charitable activities in collaboration with other non-profit Nepalese, American, and other organizations that are
involved in charitable projects/activities in Nepal U.S.A., and other countries. The Society has already
accomplished donating several personal computers to the needy people living in the greater Chicago area.
In addition to providing scholarships, fellowships and travel grants to deserving candidates, ASNEngr plans to
undertake research and educational projects such as earthquake retrofitting of schools, landslide control,
building bridges in mountainous areas and micro-hydroelectric project. These charitable projects aim at
benefitting the general public, scholars, students, researchers, and scientists in the U.S. Nepal, and beyond.
Although the emphasis is on engineering, the goal of ASNEngr is to be inclusive and be a common platform for
engineers as well as scientists and technologists who have qualifications and expertise in areas closely related
to any branch of engineering. As you visit other pages on this website, you will learn more about the Society and
its objectives and purposes. If you are an engineer or a scientist and wish to contribute to the
missions/goals/objectives of ASNEngr for the benefit and well being of the human society, you are invited and
