Welcome to the Department of Economics. It was established in April 1995. The department offers an environment that encourages innovative thinking and supports research excellence. Apart from regular programs, the department organizes workshops, seminars and conferences providing the settings for critical engagements and exchanges between scholars with allied intellectual interests. Moreover, we have reading groups and cultural groups to enhance the communication skill of our students in national and international settings.
We do explore, where appropriate, to bring our research to bear in terms of key practical challenges and ensuing policy debates on emerging issues of different political systems, political modernization, social and state policies and so on. The students will be highly benefited from our outstanding and qualified faculty members. I look forward to welcoming you to the department of Economics, Dhaka International University.
