This document discusses enhancing the quality of education at the International Islamic University Chittagong (IIUC) by addressing various issues and challenges. It identifies 12 problems that need to be addressed, such as ensuring departments have experienced faculty who can conduct research, providing training to new and existing faculty, creating a strong research environment with resources and journals, sending faculty abroad for further education, revising curriculum, offering grants and incentives for student research, shifting to university-owned facilities, reducing teaching loads, increasing pay to retain faculty, ensuring modern teaching aids, adding extracurricular activities, and strengthening communication between students, faculty and administration. Addressing these issues would help improve the quality of education provided by IIUC.

Enhancement of Quality Education: Identification of
Problems and Prospects from IIUC Perspective and Beyond
The quality of the private universities in Bangladesh has been a matter of
discussion and debate since the beginning of the journey of private universities in Bangladesh. In recent times, the issue came more prominently to the front-table discussion. It is because the private universities have become the desire and/or destiny of most of the graduation-seeking students as these are less time-consuming, non- political and well-equipped with state-of-the-art of teaching and technological aids etc. According to a statistics, out of the 3,19,472 students (other than those in the National University and Bangladesh Open University) that are enrolled in the various universities of Bangladesh, 57% (1,82,641) are enrolled in the private universities while only 43% (1,36,831) are in the public universities.
IIUC is a well-known name in the private sector universities in
Bangladesh having been ensuring a sustainable standard of education since inception. It has a great potentiality to become the pioneer in imparting higher quality education. Notwithstanding the fact, IIUC is facing some troubles which need to be addressed immediately for the sake of ensuring quality higher education:
1) Each and every department should be equipped with more senior,
experienced and expert academicians who are regarded worldwide as the authorities on their respective fields so that a research environment is created inside the respective departments and the junior faculties are trained up for research. 2) Only those who are academically sound should be appointed (part- time and/or full-time basis) as faculty members. And all newly hired faculties should be given training by the expert academicians for three months after their appointment or as a pre-condition for their joining as IIUC faculty so that they may impart quality education from the very beginning of their academic life. The same sort of training may be organized for the existing faculties for enhancing their teaching standard. All these training sessions are to be organized in line with the vision and mission of IIUC. 3) A solid research environment is to be created ensuring an enriched library where all relevant books, e-books and e-journals are to be made available. Every department should be allowed to have its own research journal the quality of which is to be ensured through a peer review/expert review process. In order to ensure a research environment, many other programs may be undertaken. 4) The university should send prospective and committed faculties to the overseas world-class universities with/without its funding with an assurance on their parts to join IIUC on their return. But the university should enhance their remuneration package after their return as they have added some values to their qualities. The university should not have the reservation to this while thinking that those faculty members have been provided by IIUC, otherwise those faculties will always seek chance for switching over to any better place. 5) The syllabus of the academic courses should be developed by the expert academicians and cross-checked by the nationally and internationally acclaimed academicians. 6) The university should provide research grants, subsidies, scholarships, fellowships or other incentives to the students and researchers from the university. This will encourage them to concentrate on research-based studies in Science, Arts, Business, and Religious areas for an effective contribution. 7) IIUC should shift its policy from rented accommodation to university-owned accommodation which will help it reduce costs on rentals, charge the students less on tuition fees (though the tuition fee is still less), and concentrate more funds for the enhancement of quality education. Besides, a congenial and hygiene environment for holding classes and exams are to be ensured so that the students and teachers feel comfortable. Some big exam halls are to be ensured for holding the exams for checking the chance of any unfair-means. Sometimes, it is seen that the students come to the university only for three days a week for their classes (as the routine is designed in this fashion) which is very dangerous for developing a habit of study in them. 8) The teaching load of the faculty members should be reduced so that they may concentrate on research. Besides, every faculty member may be brought under the condition that everyone should have at least two publications each year failing which will compromise their promotion. 9) The remuneration package of the faculty members should be enhanced so that expert faculty members may be retained and attracted. 10) All modern teaching aids in their sufficient numbers/quantities are to be ensured in the class rooms. 11) Since there is a serious lack of extracurricular activities at IIUC, the students are lagging behind in achieving quality education. 12) The communication between the students and their advisors is to be enhanced. Besides, the students-faculty members meeting and the tripartite view-exchange between the students, teachers, and top administration are seriously needed for knowing the obstacles behind the quality education.
These, among others, are some of the issues which need immediate attention and address for the top management of the university and we feel that quality education in IIUC will be ensured when these conditions are prudently fulfilled.
Thanking you,
On behalf of all faculty members
