Since 2001, the University has been actively pursuing the dual goals of providing the highest quality of teaching and instilling values essential for the leaders of tomorrow. Brac University has endeavoured to develop certain important capabilities and qualities in the nearly 9,000 students who have graduated from the University to date and the 9,498 students who are currently enrolled: the ability to think critically and express their thoughts articulately; the capacity to collaborate with others; an appreciation of the arts and sciences; and a global perspective. We also endeavour to inculcate empathy and other humanistic values. We at Brac University firmly believe that our students are the leaders and the change-makers of tomorrow. Evidence of this can be seen in Brac University's institutes, schools, departments and centres where both students and faculty are continuously engaged multidisciplinary research, collaborating on a host of initiatives to benefit society. I am pleased to inform you that the construction of the new University campus, comprising of a 14- storey building of 1.7 million square feet on 5 acres of land, is progressing well and is on track for completion by June 2021. Sir Fazle Hasan Abed KCMG Founder & Chairperson, Board of Trustees Brac University Message from Vice Chancellor Brac University has been ranked highly in this country. This is a great achievement and it is worth celebrating. However, in the global landscape of higher education, we are still off the map. We are behind the world's best in our practices and standards. But we do not intend to stay that way. We choose to aim ambitiously high. In the next four years, we shall advance on three fronts and build the capabilities that will help put the university on the map – we shall internationalize our standards and management, we shall foster a unique Brac University student experience that is both inspirational and disciplinary, and we shall build a portfolio of global excellence that is relevant and impactful. I believe these new capabilities are perhaps all first of its kinds in Bangladesh. We shall benchmark ourselves against world's best institutions and eventually become one of them. Achieving such a goal demands a long vision, a brave heart and an unwavering commitment. And it is an undertaking that requires the dedication of the entire community of stakeholders. This is surely not an easy journey, nor is it quick. We may not be able to get there during my tenure as Vice Chancellor, but I am sure we will get there.

    Academic Ramification in Colonial India: Revisit to Dhaka University as the Symbol of Bengal Partition Sowmit Chandra Chanda Dr. Neerja A. Gupta PhD Research Scholar under Dr. Neerja A. Director & Coordinator, Department of Gupta, Department of Diaspora and Diaspora and Migration Studies, SAP, Migration Studies, SAP, Gujarat Gujarat University, Ahmedabad, India. University, Ahmedabad, India. Abstract: It has been almost hundred years since University of Dhaka was established back in 1921. It was the 13th University built in India under the Colonial rule. It was that like of dream comes true object for those people who lived in the eastern part of Indian Sub-continent under Bengal presidency in the British period. But when the Bengal partition came into act in 1905, people from the new province of East Bengal and Assam were expecting a faster move from the government to establish a university in their capital city. But, with in 6 years, the partition was annulled. The people from the eastern part was very much disappointed for that, but they never left that demand to have a university in Dhaka. After some several reports and commissions the university was formed at last. But, in 1923, in the first convocation of the university, the chancellor Lord Lytton said this university was given to East Bengal as a ‘splendid Imperial compensation’. Which turns our attention to write this paper. If the statement of Lytton was true and honest, then certainly Dhaka University stands as the foremost symbol of both the Bengal Partition in the academic ramification. Key Words: Partition, Bengal Partition, Colony, Colonial Power, Curzon, University, Dhaka University etc.

Reports about the oral health awareness and oral hygiene practices of children in Bangladesh are insufficient. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the oral health awareness and practices of junior school children in Mathbaria upazila of Pirojpur District, Bangladesh. The study covered 150 children aged 5 to 12 years of age from three primary schools. The study reveals that the students have limited awareness about oral health and poor knowledge of oral hygiene habits. Oral health awareness and hygiene practices amongst the school going children was found to be very poor and create a much-needed niche for implementing school-based oral health awareness and education projects/programs.

  • Determinants of Religious Tourism: an Empirical Investigation
    Journal of Business Studies, Vol. XL, No. 3, December 2019 Determinants of Religious Tourism: An Empirical Investigation Prosanjit Saha* Biplab Roy** Abstract: Religious tourism presumably the oldest form of tourism in which the tourists search for tranquility and sacred experience. Despite having promising faith centers in different parts of Bangladesh, religious tourism receives little research attention. Owing to inadequate understanding and precise portrayal of religious tourism’s products, domestic travelers often exclude religious attractions out of their usual year round itinerary. This study aims to identify major determinants for developing religious tourism in a credible way to the travelers. Through snowball sampling, 100 respondents who visited at least once to any religious sites was surveyed face to face. Descriptive statistics portrayed the demographic profile of the respondents and Regression analysis explored the influence of each determinant. The results make contribution by suggesting that unique branding and communicating religious values through social media promotion determine the success of religious tourism. Moreover, the study offered some managerial implications to develop Bangladesh as an attractive religious tourism hub. Keywords: Religious Tourism, Unique and consistent branding, interpreting religious values, sustainable policies, innovative promotion. Introduction Tourism is now considered as one of the most dominant sectors in the world consisting multifarious forms and diverse nature. One of the most sensible and prevalent forms of tourism is religious tourism. It can be defined as travel with the core motive of experiencing religious forms, or the products they induce, like art, culture, traditions and architecture. According to the Ministry of Tourism of Brazil (MTUR) (2010), “Religious Tourism is the set of tourism activities arising from the spiritual quest and religious practice in places and in events related to institutional religions, regardless of creed or ethnic origin”.

Experience from Bangladesh M. Jahangir Alam Chowdhury mjac (at) univdhaka.edu Abstract: The study intends to assess the impact of the participation in the microcredit programs in Bangladesh on women entrepreneurship development at the household level.
