Note from the Director

With a career spanning 16 years in education, I've had the privilege of immersing myself in various fields related to pedagogy. Having pursued MA and BA at McGill University (Canada) and North South University (Bangladesh); respectively, in the fields of Education and Linguistics. - I've had the privilege of experiencing enriching classes facilitated by exceptional educators.

Throughout my career, I've contributed to the educational landscape in Bangladesh by teaching in prestigious private and public universities and conducting training programs for different government bodies. As a recipient of the prestigious SSHRC - The Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada award, I worked as a graduate research assistant on several education-based research projects during my MA program at McGill. I have also received BRAC University International Conference Travel Grants in 2011 for presenting my academic papers at the 42nd Annual Conference of Australian Linguistics Society (ALS) at the Australian National University, Australia in 2011, and The International Conference on Globalization and Higher Education (ICGHE) at Bangalore University, India in 2011.

Currently, I am serving as the director of ISDCE at SUB. Here I derive immense satisfaction from leading diverse educational initiatives, including the planning, oversight, and organisation of various short courses and workshops for skill development for individuals from varied ages, backgrounds, and socio-economic classes. These courses complement the traditional university curriculum by providing practical, hands-on training that equips learners with industry-specific skills and knowledge. I believe that in today's rapidly evolving job market, it's crucial to supplement academic learning with practical skills that empower individuals to succeed professionally.
