Roster of Experts 

Research Center and Invention and Innovation Center (RC-II) is one of the core units of Gandaki University (GU) to cater science and community from a new perspective. It encourages, supports, and leads internal (faculties and other staffs conducting academic researches) and external experts (from other institutions and/areas of Nepal and abroad) being involved in research on provincial and national issues.
