Bangladesh Open University (BOU) Vice-Chancellor Prof Dr Syed Humayun Akhtar has said the university will soon launch bachelor programme (BA and BSS) for Bangladesh expatriates in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
He made the remarks while speaking at a recent virtual view-exchange meeting on the activities of BOU’s Nish-2 programme with the Bangladesh Embassy in Saudi Arabia, a press release said on Friday, reports BSS.
Humayun said the BOU is going to introduce bachelor programme – Bachelor of Arts (BA) and Bachelor of Social Science (BSS) – outside the country so that the Bangladeshi expatriates, who are called remittance fighters, can become educated through this programme and can live with dignity there.
It is possible to increase the country’s GDP with getting the remittance fighters educated through the BOU programme, he said.
