I became intrigued about studying in Bangladesh because it is doing remarkably well in development and has set itself as an example to follow. Furthermore, the degree provides me with international exposure which facilitates a comparative appreciation of the development issues from different partsof the world. I was just as impressed by the value for money offered by the program as the increase it has brought about in my level of understanding regarding issues of development. I would like to thank all the teachers of this Department for their dedication, remarkable friendliness and kind guidance.
