Efficient and productive human resources are the crucial prerequisites for economic growth and social development of Bangladesh, more particularly in the context of global technological advancement. Productive and efficient utilization of resources is ensured when the entire labour force of a country contributes as human capital. Higher education has a significant contribution in transforming the human resources of a country to human capital through facilitating knowledge creation and fostering the skills of individuals. The national university (NU) affiliated college sub-sector comprises the largest segment (about two-thirds) of tertiary-level students in Bangladesh, and thus has a critical role to play in fostering a skilled workforce and promoting growth agenda in the country.
