The
government has taken an initiative to set up a public technology university in
Bosila area of Mohammadpur, said State Minister for Primary and Mass Education
Bobby Hajjaj.
The
university would be established as part of efforts for developing Mohammadpur
into a centre of modern education, the state minister said while speaking at a
programme held at the Firoza Bashar Ideal College in Bosila on Saturday.
At the event,
top scores in the SSC 2026 exams were felicitated.
Speaking as
the chief guest, Bobby Hajjaj said the nation now stands before a “new era in
human civilization and progress.”
In this new
era, artificial intelligence and other advanced technologies are set to reshape
economic fundamentals and upend the job market. Many existing jobs will be
lost, while new types of jobs will be created in the tech-powered global economic
overhaul, Bobby Hajjaj said.
To keep up
with the world, the country’s young generation must be prepared from now, he
said.
The proposed
technology university in Mohammadpur would provide lessons on a range of advanced
technologies.
