  • 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.

Zabed Ahmed, PhD Professor and Chair Department of Information Science and Library Management, University of Dhaka, Dhaka-1000 CERTIFICATE This is to certify that the thesis entitled “A Webometric Analysis of Private university Websites in Bangladesh” submitted by Sajia Sultana, for the degree of Master of Philosophy (MPhil) in the Department of Information Science and Library Management, University of Dhaka, is her original work carried out under my supervision and guidance, and is worthy of examination. Dr. S.M. Zabed Ahmed Supervisor Abstract There have been many research studies conducted on webometrics, especially on the impact of websites and the web impact factor. This current research analyzes the private university websites in Bangladesh according to some common webometrics indicators. It examines and explores 54 private university websites in Bangladesh and identifies the number of web pages and link pages, and calculates their Simple Web Impact Factor, Self-link Web Impact Factor and External link Web Impact Factor. The results indicate that some private universities have relatively high number of web pages, but correspondingly their link pages are low in number and the websites fall behind in their simple, self-link and external link web impact factors. It is also found that the external link web pages provide more than other link pages.

  • Prospects and Challenges of Higher Education in the 21 Century
    Prospects and Challenges of Higher Education in the 21st Century: Bangladesh Perspective Md. Alauddin* [email protected] Mohammad Rokibul Kabir† [email protected] Mohd.Yasin Sharif‡ [email protected] Abstract The success of a nation depends, to a great extent, on the nature and standard of higher education. Today, higher education institutions around the world have become easier than before due to communication and information technology. Now students can take higher education and distance learning from one corner to another corner of the world easily. Bangladesh is not also exception from this. There is a great prospect of higher education in Bangladesh. Almost 38 public universities and 94 private universities are in the country. Though public universities are playing role to ensure higher education for a long time, they are incapable of meeting the huge demand of higher studies from students of all corners of country. To fill the gap between demand and supply, private universities have opened new avenues. So, the prospects for private universities to contribute at higher levels of education are significant. On the other side of the coin, there are also many challenges of higher education in private universities. In the paper a questionnaire has been constructed with 29 questions and researchers used SPSS 20 version software to analyze the data. Thus, this paper is an attempt to investigate the prospects and challenges of higher education in private universities in Bangladesh. The paper will be useful for the policy makers and
