In May 2009, the department has signed a MoU with the Institute of Tibetan Plateau Research, Chinese Academy of Science, Beijing for the collaborative research on Hydro-Meteorology of Himalaya/Tibetan Plateau regions. Under this program two automatic weather stations are monitoring climate at Tarahara (Tarai) and Kyanjing (Himalaya). Water samples from these sites are also collecting for isotopes analysis. Further, some POPs monitoring at different locations within Nepal are in operation. In addition, two faculties from this department have already offered Ph. D. degree at the Institute of Tibetan Plateau Research (ITP), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), Beijing, China.
