  • Dropout at Tertiary Education in Bangladesh: Configurations and Determinants
    Dropout at Tertiary Education in Bangladesh: Configurations and Determinants BM Sajjad Hossain* [email protected] Abstract The present education system in Bangladesh may be broadly divided into three major stages- primary, secondary and tertiary education. For the last few years, primary school enrollment is about hundred percent ensured which is an outstanding achievement among the underdeveloped countries in the world as well as in the South Asian countries. However, more or less, still dropout is present in every education stages. A few years back the dropout rate was noteworthy, luckily with proper care, government of Bangladesh has succeeded to minimize the rate at primary and secondary education except the tertiary level. This study attempts to explore the reasons of dropout of students from tertiary level. It tries to confirm the prevailing views about the main reasons for dropout as being poverty and related factors. There is also unanimity about higher dropout of the girl students in the rural areas in Bangladesh, confirming prevailing views about early marriage of girls, sexual harassment and illegal pregnancy, household role of girls in life, and lack of recognition for the need for their education etc. Additionally dropout of the male students happens mainly for the failure in examination; besides home-sickness, economic inability to perform academic tasks, brain drain, students’ politics, and drug addiction etc. Data is taken from both primary and secondary sources. Both the public and private university records are analyzed to represent the clear picture by simple tables related to the dropout students and education system. The higher or tertiary education is contributing a significant role to a country’s overall socio-economic progress through the professional and intellectual development of the young people.

Due to some unavoidable circumstances, it could not be organized in all the divisional cities of the country as we used to do before. However, this festival will travel to those missed cities in the coming months. This year we had to work under a very limited budget and a lot of uncertainty. We could not convince all the expected sponsors which is very sad. But still we are grateful to those who stood up to help us when we needed them the most. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all our partners and sponsors. I would like to remind you all that this film festival is not just a film festival.
