President
Governing Board, BRAC University

On this auspicious occasion, as BRAC University celebrates its second convocation, I would like to congratulate all the graduating students, their proud parents and the teachers and staff of BRAC University, who altogether made this day so special.

If we look back six years, when BRAC University started with only three Departments and BU now have five departments, three schools and a center. This success was sure to come, as the students and teachers have persevered utmost to develop their institution! I congratulate all the members of the BU family for their collective effort.

BRAC University aims to transform its students into competent, confident, creative and ethical graduates who will become virtuous citizens and enlightened leaders. They are made aware of their social obligations - responsibilities towards themselves, their parents and the nation.

The mission of BU is to foster the national development process through the creation of a center of excellence in higher education that is responsive to the needs of society. The goal of BU is not only to produce educated graduates, but also to give the country knowledgeable, ethical and professional individuals, who will in due course, prove their efficiency in all aspects of life.

On this gracious moment, as the students pass out from BU, they must remember their duties. I am certain our students will make the best use of their knowledge and experience.
