IUB LFE & HECUA

IUB's pioneering program, Live-in-Field Experience, where IUB students get a distinctive opportunity to learn about rural life, is a complement to the unique course National Culture and Heritage where a comprehensive study of the history, society and culture of Bangladesh is taught. These programs have received acclamation from home and abroad and every year under the collaboration with Higher Education Consortium for Urban Affairs, more than a dozen US students join the students of IUB to study rural life of Bangladesh. Such exposure to rural life and interaction with foreign students broaden the horizon and knowledge base of our students and help them to understand the world from a broader perspective.
