Academic Program Also called Study Program. Please see below the entry at Study Program Accreditation The process of recognizing formally a higher education institution as a whole or a specific study program offered by an institution as having met certain pre-determined minimal criteria or standards. Additional Financing This refers to the additional funding provided to HEQEP by IDA and GoB. Schedule Assessment The process of systematic gathering, quantifying, and using of information in view of judging the instructional effectiveness and the curricular adequacy of a higher education institution as a whole or academic program. Assessment is necessary in order to validate a formal accreditation decision, but it does not necessarily lead to an accreditation outcome. It also means a technically designed process for evaluating student learning outcomes and for improving student learning and development as well as teaching effectiveness. Audit The process of reviewing an institution or a study program by external peers that is primarily focused on its accountability, and determining if the stated goals and objectives in terms of curriculum, teachers, infrastructure, etc., are met. Best Practice A method or an innovative process involving a range of safe and reasonable practices resulting in the improved performance of a higher education institution or an academic program, usually recognized as „best” by other peer institutions. A best practice does not necessarily represent an absolute, ultimate example or pattern, its application assures the improved performance of a higher education institution or program; rather it identifies the best approach to a specific situation, as institutions and programs vary greatly in compositions and scope. Benchmarking A standardized method for collecting and reporting critical operational data in a way that enables relevant comparisons among the performances of different institutions or programs, usually with a view to establish good practice, diagnosing problems in performance, and identifying areas of strength. It gives the institution or the program the external references and the best practices on which to base its evaluation and to design its working processes. Culture of Evidence As it relates to institutional quality culture, the culture of evidence is a mindset acquired in a higher education institution and based on clear ethical values, principles, and rules, which consists of the self-assessment of its learning outcomes, engaging the teaching staff and the academic administration in a thoughtful, regular collection, selection, and use of relevant institutional performance indicators, in order to inform and prove, whenever and to whomever necessary, that it is doing well in specific areas, e.g., institutional planning, decision making, quality, etc., and for the purpose vii of improving its learning and teaching outcomes. The “culture of evidence” is the empirical basis for the quality culture of a higher education institution. Consultative Committee Consultative Committee acts as an advisory committee such as the International Advisory Council, Staff-Student Committee and Industrial Advisory Board. Deliberative Committee A decision making committee of the university such as the Syndicate, Examination Board and Academic Committees. Department Department means an academic unit in a university that offers study and research programs that lead to awards of degrees/diploma by the university. It may also refer to a non-academic unit such as IT Center, Bursary and Department of Student Affairs. Designer The body designing the procedure. Documented Procedure Procedures that are represented in a written form. Faculty An academic entity which includes departments, centers, institutes, academies and other such academic bodies, such as School of Pharmacy or Center for Business Management Studies. NQF Generally, a National Qualifications Framework (NQF) is designed to provide nationally recognized and homogeneous standards and qualifications, as well as recognition for all learning of knowledge and competencies and a basis for further review, articulation and development of existing and impending qualifications. Also, among other purposes, it should facilitate curricular change and allow for the improvement of access and social inclusion, as well as the integration of changing societal needs. A NQF is primarily developed

Effective branding creates trust, recognition, and popularity for companies among people. A university with a well-reputed brand has several advantages. It can easily attract students. The main objective of this paper is to determine how the branding of a private university influences student's choice of selection. For doing this, there are many relationships between branding and consumer decision making processes are mentioned.

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.
