Abstract

Education adviser Professor Chowdhury Rafiqul Abrar, on Wednesday, said that the high cost of private university education continued to exclude many talented students while chairing the 26th convocation of North South University held on the university campus in Dhaka. Highlighting the leadership roles of NSU alumni in business, finance, law, technology, development, media, academia, and public policy across cities such as Dhaka, Singapore, London, Toronto, and Sydney, he said, their work reflects Bangladesh’s booming presence as a source of skilled and globally competitive leadership. University Grants Commission chairman Professor SMA Faiz was the convocation speaker and UGC member Professor Mohammad Anwar Hossen was the special guest.
