Tertiary Education"
Higher education is an advanced level of studies.
It is also called tertiary education. Its courses are usually studied at
universities, colleges and higher educational institutions. Higher education in
Bangladesh comprises two categories of institutions: degree awarding
universities and colleges affiliated to the National University; but each of
the medical is affiliated with a Public University. Right now there are 37
public universities in the country while there were only four universities
before our independence. Moreover,there are 80 private and 3 international
universities for providing higher education. Number of colleges providing
higher education is around 1,400. Most of them offer BA (pass) education of
three years' duration and only one-third of them offer B.A. (Honors) courses.
Public universities are the foremost choice of the majority students who seek
higher education. These universities offer various subjects in Science,
Commerce, Humanities, Engineering and Technology, Law, Education and Medicine
disciplines. Their library, laboratory, internet and research facilities are
much better there than anywhere else in the country. Moreover, residential
facilities at subsidized rates are available in these public universities. Because
of limited number of seats in public universities and high tution fees charged
by the private universities, access to university education is rather limited
in Bangladesh. We cannot solve the problem over night but it can be lessened
gradually. The number of public universities must be increased. High charged at
the private universities should be reduced so that the poor students can have
the access to the institutions. In this regard the government should take the
responsibility and necessary steps.
