Message from Dean, FSET

The University of Science and Technology Chittagong (USTC) is an excellent institution for engineering studies. As dean of the Faculty of Science, Engineer and Technology (FSET), I am incredibly proud of USTC's longstanding commitment to providing a practical, experience-based engineering education. Engineers are dedicated to enriching human existence through innovation and progress. They tackle challenges through inventive reasoning and methodical progress. We shape the future of graduate engineers to become community leaders in accordance with the Human Development Pillar, which requires "a world-class education system, healthcare system, and an efficient and committed workforce that achieves a competitive labor market to enable the Bangladesh population to participate in development." We strive to equip our graduates with the knowledge, skills, and competences necessary to flourish on the job market from day one. We use practical applied courses in industrial settings such as industrial pilot plants, laboratories, and workshops within the university, as well as the most advanced available technologies, to develop the skills and competencies of our graduates so that they are a valuable asset to any future employer.
