To provide low-cost educational and professional training to existing professionals, NED University established the NED Academy. The academy has two sections: • Centre for Continuing Engineering Education (CCEE), • Centre for Multidisciplinary Postgraduate Programmes (CMPP). CCEE CCEE offers courses for Engineering, Information Technology, Management and Conversion Programmes. Short and long-duration courses are offered in these subjects. It s offered so that professionals, teachers, and students attain higher levels of research, information, and experience. It empowers them by boosting their skills, knowledge, and techniques. CCEE offers short courses to bring together new practitioners, and update engineering talent, technology, and opportunities for working engineers to improve the quality experience. ==Research==

Although the main focus of the university had been on its teaching programmes, the university has started masters by Research and PhD programs. Different research groups and centres are also working in the university. The university publishes three research journals namely NED University Journal of Research, Journal of Social Sciences & Interdisciplinary Research, Journal of Research in Architecture & Planning. ==Vice-Chancellors==
