Chairman's Message
Textile Engineering stands at the crossroads of tradition and innovation, blending centuries-old techniques with cutting-edge technology to create products that shape our everyday lives. Bangladesh's Readymade Garment (RMG) industry has been pivotal in driving economic growth and development. Its significance lies in its contribution to export revenue and its role as a major employer. As a member of the textile community, it gives me immense pleasure to share that Bangladesh’s readymade garment export procured $46.99 billion during the fiscal year 2022-23, which is 84.59% of total export earnings, recording a growth of 10.27% from the previous year.
At the Department of Textile Engineering of Uttara University, we take pride in nurturing the next generation of textile engineers who will drive this dynamic industry forward. Our curriculum is designed to provide a complete understanding of textile materials, processes, and applications while emphasizing sustainability, innovation, and global perspectives. Through hands-on laboratory experiences, industry internships, and research opportunities, our students gain the knowledge and skills needed to excel in a rapidly evolving industry.
The department offers a comprehensive educational journey supported by cutting-edge labs and a faculty of committed members with extensive academic and industry backgrounds. Our dedicated faculty members are experts in their fields and are committed to providing a supportive learning environment where students can thrive academically and professionally. They bring a wealth of industry experience and academic expertise to the classroom, ensuring that our students receive a well-rounded education that prepares them for successful careers in textile engineering and related fields. Furthermore, our department maintains strong partnerships with industry leaders and research institutions, enabling us to stay at the forefront of technological advancements and industry trends. These collaborations provide our students with valuable opportunities for networking, professional development, and real-world application of their skills. I am confident that our department will significantly contribute to enhancing textile education in Bangladesh.
As a proud member of this esteemed department, I invite everyone to explore our website and visit our campus to learn more about the exciting opportunities available at the Department of Textile Engineering, Uttara University. Together, let us embark on a journey of discovery, innovation, and excellence in textile engineering.
