I have pleasure in welcoming you to the Department of Textile Engineering at Daffodil International University, Bangladesh. The Department started its journey in the Fall semester of 2005. In this welcome message, I would like to convey something of the Department’s activities, vision, faculty, offices, staff & students who are dedicated to maintaining our academic & administrative achievements to any prospective student considering joining us.
The primary aim of the program is to create textiles & clothing engineering graduates to meet the growing demand of the textiles and ready-made garment sector, which is the highest foreign currency earning sector of Bangladesh.
All of our faculty members possess an excellent academic background and many of them have overseas qualifications from Germany, India, Japan, Sweden, the United Kingdom and United States. There is no doubting motivation and commitment to lead and build the Department of Textile Engineering of DIU as one of the best textile departments in Bangladesh.
The Department has already established the following laboratories with modern instruments viz., a textile testing and quality control lab, yarn manufacturing lab, fabric manufacturing lab (both weaving and knitting), wet processing lab, apparel manufacturing lab with CAD facility, engineering drawing lab, mechanical engineering lab, computer lab, physics lab, & chemistry lab etc. We have a policy of updating and upgrading our labs on a continuous basis and, as a mark of this, new instruments & machines are at various stages of procurement.
More than 2733 students have already completed the B.Sc. in Textile Engineering degree and are working in various reputed textile and garment industries, local and foreign buying houses, textile dyes and chemical companies. Their efforts are much appreciated by their employers.
It is my great pleasure to inform you that, for the first time in Bangladesh, we introduced an M.Sc. in Textile Engineering in the summer of 2009.
