External Peer Review Report Department of Philosophy JAHANGIRNAGAR UNIVERSITY External Peer Review Report by Dr. Kripa Shanker Gupta Director, IQAC and Executive Education ISBR Business School, Bangalore-560100, Karnataka, India Prof. Dr. Md. Abdul Muhit Professor, Department of Philosophy University of Dhaka Dr. Kazi Bayzid Kabir Associate Professor, Department of Chemical Engineering Additional Director, Institutional Quality Assurance Cell Bangladesh University of Engineering & Technology Submitted to Institutional Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) Jahangirnagar University, Dhaka, Bangladesh April 2018 Preface The Government of Bangladesh under the leadership of the Honourable Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina is committed to change the landscape of higher education through enhancement of quality of higher education and research in the country. To achieve the target of quality education, the Government and the World Bank have generously funded the project which is known as Higher Education Quality Enhancement Project (HEQEP). This project has been implemented by the University Grants Commission (UGC) of Bangladesh with appropriate assistance from the World Bank. A self-assessment Manual was prepared by UGC to serve as guidelines for the universities to implement the self-assessment and quality assurance at program level, with continuous communication with the Institutional Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) of the respective university. The mission of all higher education institutions is to produce well trained graduates equipped with essential knowledge of the educational program and ability to effectively apply the acquired knowledge in real world applications. Students are expected to demonstrate positive attitudes and values, together with necessary twenty first century skills to meet the changing requirements for employment. This will ultimately assist in implementing the development plans of Bangladesh. Assurance of quality in higher education is a process of establishing stakeholders’ confidence that fulfils expectations or measures up to threshold minimum requirements. Quality assurance is an all-embracing term covering all the policies, processes and actions through which quality of higher education is maintained, developed and enhanced. Quality assurance cannot happen automatically or accidentally, it has to be planned. Quality assurance is not any single thing but an aura, an atmosphere, an overpowering feeling that ‘the Institution is doing everything with excellence. 1_Page Acknowledgement We, the External Peer Review Team (EPRT) members, would like to thank the Institutional Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) of Jahangirnagar University for giving us the opportunity to review the Department of Philosophy. Appreciation is also extended to the Honorable Vice Chancellor of Jahangirnagar University for spending her valuable time with us. Our heartfelt appreciation is accorded to all the faculty members of the Department of Philosophy, especially the Head and Members of the Self- Assessment Committee (SAC). Their continuous support and great logistical arrangements prepared for us were simply amazing. They were generous and readily available, fulfilling every request that EPRT made. Special gratitude goes to the Director and the Additional Directors of IQAC, Jahangirnagar University for their work plan, coordination and constant support from the time of arrival at Jahangirnagar University until departure. The EPRT is also very thankful to everyone who helped us during the three days, including all the stakeholders of the Department. The EPRT affirms that the content of the report is the result of the analysis of the SAR prepared by the SAC, the presentation by SAC, information received from meetings with stakeholders and their recommendations, site visit of physical facilities, and thoughtful feedbacks from the University administrators.

In this respect, all academic activities are functionally taking place at the program level. To maintain and enhance education quality of the program, regular program review exercise is necessary for evaluating and continuously enhancing the quality and effectiveness of the program under review. Program review is a cyclical process which is critical for improving its quality of teaching-learning and research and it is also a requirement for program accreditation. Program review exercise needs necessary data from stakeholders to evaluate and reflect the quality of the program through self- assessment. Program self-assessment is a systematic collection, review and use of information about educational programs undertaken for the purpose of improving student learning. It involves through examination of all aspects and components of the program in respect of stakeholders’ opinions. It is a process of identifying the strengths and weakness

  • Chittagonian Variety: Dialect, Language, Or Semi-Language?
    IIUC STUDIES ISSN 1813-7733 Vol.-12 December 2015 (P. 41-62) Chittagonian Variety: Dialect, Language, or Semi-Language? Muhammad Azizul Hoque1 Abstract: The main concern of this paper is to explore the status of Chittagonian variety- a language spoken by the people of Chittagong in Bangladesh-with a view to considering whether it is a dialect of Bangla or a language or a semi-language. Though it is closely related to Bangla, its distinctive features like a different sound system, mutual unintelligibility with Bangla, etc. give it a separate entity and encourage the researcher of this paper to rethink about the existing idea of its being a dialect of Bangla and to try to present some supportive argumants in favor of its separate entity as a language. In the article the researcher has provided an introduction to the Chittagonian variety; language and dialect; previous literature, and used methodology consisting of random sampling based on the collection of newspaper articles, books, and internet sources, and the like. And some findings from that research and recommendations have been discussed. 1.0. Introduction The history of sociolinguistics reveals that some languages like Sanskrit and Latin are dead for the lack of proper maintenance and some others like English, French, and Italian have got the status of standard languages. Likewise, the spoken language of Chittagong Chittagonian has also got such characteristics as to be a distinct language. So it is not difficult for Chatgaya to be developed into a full-fledged language. But the Chittagonian variety, as the researcher observes, is losing its speakers day by day.

    Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bangladesh (Hum.), Vol. 57(1), 2012, pp. 101-152 IMPACT OF ARABIC ON BENGALI LANGUAGE AND CULTURE Afia Dil* Abstract This paper is a sociolinguistic study of the impact of Arabic language on Bengali language and culture beginning from the earliest contact of the Arab traders by sea routes with the Chittagong bay area and inland areas like Sonargaon and Dhaka; the coming of Muslim saints from the 7th century onward and later as conquerors from Western and Central Asia. The essay covers: 1) Survey of historical contact of Arabic with Bengali with focus on influence of Muslim missionaries and sufis notably Shah Muhammad Sultan Rumi in Mymensingh (11th century), Shaikh Jalaluddin Tabrizi in Pandua (12th century), Shah Jalal in Sylhet (14th century); Muslim rule of the region (1204-1764); British rule (1764-1947); period of East Pakistan (1947-71); and, Bangladesh (since 1971); 2) Muslim Bengali literature beginning with Shah Muhammad Saghir (14th century), translation of Islamic and Perso-Arabic literature , emergence of Dobhashi literature and Baul poems of Lalon Shah and others; 3) Linguistic impact of Arabic language on the phonology, morphology, syntax and selected semantic domains of Bengali language; 4) Influence on Bengali life and culture in general; 5) Concluding remarks on current trends in the field. Transliteration of Arabic and Bengali Phonemic Sounds I have chosen to use in this essay the standard English alphabet for the following phonemic consonants in Arabic and Bengali: b,d,f,g,h,j,k,l,m,n,p,q,r,s, t,w.
