Eminent citizens of the country have urged the government to turn the Dhaka School of Economics (DSE) into a specialised public university. The request was made at the reception for new undergraduate students and farewell for the departing students of the institution held at the office of the Economic Reporter’s Forum (ERF) on Saturday. If DSE becomes a full-fledged university, it’ll safeguard monetary, fiscal and external economy and develop more human resources through capacity building with modern inductive learning techniques, said speakers. Pranab Saha, editor of DBC News was present as the chief guest. Economist and IT expert Professor Muhammad Mahbub Ali was the session chair of the event, while Shaheda Parveen Trisha, Vice Chairperson of Prime Bank Investment Limited, was the special guest.
