Business in the name of education

Saturday, 12 July 2014


Currently, there are 79 private universities in Bangladesh and around three hundred thousand students are studying in these universities. Among the universities, some are unauthorised, some are just like business firms for selling certificates.
We learned from a UGC report that the private university campuses are small in size. Members of the board of trustees are small in number or have no qualification. On the other hand, many teachers also lack experience and efficiency. Questions arise as to how students there can get high standard. Who will control the irregularities of private universities?
