Youth must be driven by innovation, entrepreneurship: Education Adviser

 
Education Adviser Prof Dr Chowdhury Rafiqul Abrar on Sundy said the young generation should not only aspire to be job seekers but also be driven by innovation, entrepreneurship, and moral leadership.

Mentioning that education is not an expense but an investment in peace, prosperity, and human resources, Dr Abrar said, "The Bangladesh government is undertaking education reform programmes prioritizing equality, quality enhancement, and digital transformation." "We want to build an education system that will make students world-class, skilled, creative, and innovative citizens," he added, reports BSS.

He made the remarks while addressing as the chief guest at the 37th Convocation of the Islamic University of Technology (IUT) here.

At this convocation, as many as 522 students from 36 member countries of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) received graduate and postgraduate degrees from the university.

The Education Adviser also remembered the students and alumni who lost their lives in the July 2024 movement, paying tribute to their sacrifice.
Addressing the graduating students, he said, "Your education is a trust - use it for the welfare of humanity, in the path of morality and innovation. Let faith be your guidance, knowledge be your light, and compassion be your strength."
