Make NU centre of excellence

Academicians urge gout

Staff Correspondent
Academicians at a discussion yesterday said the government should take steps to make National University (NU) a centre of excellence in higher education from where well-timed degrees would be offered instead of abolishing it.
A strong corrupt syndicate has gripped, the overall NU activities which must be contained, otherwise the problems could not be solved, they said.
They suggested that the colleges affiliated with NU be re-affiliated to different renowned universities of the country and NU should provide master's and higher degrees.
The discussion on 'Prevailing Problems of the National University and Remedies’ was organised by Citizens' Solidarity at the Shaheed
Munir Chowdhury auditorium at TSC on the Dhaka University campus.
Prof Akhtaruzzaman said. “I am not in favour of abolishing the university, instead it could be made a centre of higher education. Colleges under the university should be given to the renowned universities of th^£buntry~and NU should pnly deal with master's degrees and above."
"National University has its own infrastructure and it could easily be made a residential higher education centre." he added.
The former NU professor said the main problem at NU is corruption and not letting it to be a fully autonomous university.
“There is a strong corrupt syndicate in the university who are doing all the misdeeds there. The syndicate is very strong," he said, adding: "The
undue interference of the education ministry does not let it run autonomously which hampers its activities.”
"It is not a realistic thought to abolish the university. It should be upgraded to a quality university for higher education," Prof Rashidul said.
Differing with the people who say the' quality of e'ducV tion at NU is lower, he said: "NU students have to go? through tough competition across the country in their examinations. In the competitive exams, it is seen that the NU students do well."
Former vice chancellor of NU Prof M Mofakkharul Islam said there is a chance to make the NU a centre of excellence. Proper plans and willingness are needed to that end.
The discussion was presided over by Prof ASM Atiqur Rahman, president of Citizens' Solidarity.
