The Dhaka University (DU) authorities have decided to reduce around 1085 seats from 2021-22 academic sessions and scrap the ‘Gha’ unit from its admission test process.
Following the recommendations of the dean’s committee, the decision came from a special meeting of the general admission committee of the university held today, DU Pro Vice Chancellor (Admini-stration) Dr Mohammad Samad told BSS.
However, the decisions will be finalized after further review at the meeting of the academic council, he added, reports BSS.
“We are rearranging the seats for different departments and institutes as the number of students is more than its infrastructural and academic facilities in some departments”, said DU Vice Chancellor Md Akhtaruzzaman.
Number of seats will be reduced in some departments and institutes considering its capacity and on the basis of rational ground while seats will also be increased in some cases, he said.
Infrustructures, resour-ces and facilities will also be increased in the departments or institutes where seats are being increased, he furthered.
