The government has moved to amend the Private University Act 1992 and will table an amendment bill during the current session of Parliament, Education Minister Dr ANM Ehsanul Hoque Milan said Wednesday, November 11.
Speaking at the inauguration of a residential complex at Bangladesh University of Professionals (BUP), Milan said the administration aims to transform Bangladesh into an international education hub capable of attracting foreign students. Discussions are underway with universities abroad, including institutions in Canberra, Australia, alongside plans to upgrade campus facilities for international enrollees.
Urging students to build technical skills suited to modern global demands, the minister called on universities and educators to encourage the proper use and development of artificial intelligence (AI). He also announced that new school textbooks will be distributed to students on December 24.
