Bangladesh Bar Council Issues Urgent Notice to Private Universities on LLB Student List Submission

**Bangladesh Bar Council Issues Urgent Notice to Private Universities on LLB (Hons) Student List Submission**

Submission of Admission and Passing Lists for LLB (Hons) Students by Private Universities in Bangladesh

Date: June 27, 2025
Location: Dhaka, Bangladesh

The Bangladesh Bar Council has issued a crucial reminder to private universities offering LLB (Hons) programs, requiring them to submit student admission and graduation lists by June 30, 2025. This directive aims to ensure proper monitoring of future legal professionals and to uphold Bar Council policies.

✅ What Universities Must Do:

Submit both admission and graduation list for LLB (Hons) students.
Send a hard copy signed by the Registrar and Law Faculty Head to the Bar Council office in Shahbagh, Dhaka.
Send a soft copy in Excel format to: bangladeshbarcouncil.reg@gmail.com.

⚠️ Warning from the Bar Council:

Failure to submit on time will result in a suspension of the advocacy registration process for affected students.
Lists exceeding UGC-approved seats or outside policy guidelines will be rejected.

📌 Final Reminder:

Universities that have already submitted lists for previous semesters do not need to resend those. However, lists for new batches or semesters must be submitted within the deadline.

Note: This information was given in a notice signed by Bar Council Secretary and District and Sessions Judge Mohammad Kamal Hossain Sikder on June 16.

The notice states that there is an obligation to regularly send the admission and passing list of law students to the Bangladesh Bar Council. But recently, it has been seen that many private universities are not following this rule properly.

Western Sydney University and Times Higher Education Rankings

Western Sydney University Ranked #1 Globally for Impact in Times Higher Education Rankings

Western Sydney University has once again been named the #1 university in the world for impact by the Times Higher Education (THE) Impact Rankings – for the fourth consecutive year. This global ranking assesses how universities are driving progress toward the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), such as climate action, gender equality, sustainable communities, and quality education.

Championing Access, Diversity and Equity in Higher Education

At Western Sydney University, two-thirds of students are the first in their family to attend university. Many come from refugee or disadvantaged backgrounds, bringing with them powerful stories of resilience, ambition, and hope. Their success shows the transformative power of education, with positive ripple effects across families, communities, and countries.

A Global Leader in Sustainability and Innovation

WSU is deeply aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, embedding them into everyday campus life, research, and community initiatives. Our campus network is fully powered by 100% GreenPower-accredited electricity, significantly reducing our carbon footprint.

Our flagship environmental project, EucFACE (Eucalyptus Free Air Carbon Dioxide Enrichment), is Australia’s largest climate change research facility, based at our Hawkesbury campus. It simulates future CO₂ levels to study the impact of climate change on native forest ecosystems – producing world-leading research that shapes environmental policy.

Creating Global Impact Through Community Programs

Western’s international initiatives, such as the MARVI project in India, train local women as groundwater knowledge leaders. These women – known as Bhujal Jaankars – help their communities make informed agricultural decisions based on water availability, promoting female leadership and sustainable water use.

Empowering Women and Girls in STEM

WSU is a hub for gender equality in education, welcoming students from over 170 cultures and countries. Through programs like WiSE (Women in STEM Education), we support women pursuing careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. These graduates are now leading key infrastructure projects like the Western Sydney International Airport and the Sydney Metro transforming our region and beyond.

Why This Ranking Matters

The Times Higher Education Impact Rankings assess how over 2,300 universities in 130 countries address global challenges. Unlike traditional rankings that focus on reputation or research income, this ranking reflects real-world outcomes — how universities change lives, support communities and build a sustainable future.

At Western Sydney University, we are proud to lead by example. Our commitment to inclusion, sustainability and social justice is embedded in everything we do.

North South University (NSU) students from the Department of Biochemistry and Microbiology (BMD) have made Bangladesh proud by securing the top three awards at the International Biotechnology Conference 2025, held at Brac University, Dhaka, on June 20–21.

This major academic achievement underscores NSU’s growing leadership in biotechnology research in Bangladesh and highlights the innovative potential of its students in the global scientific community.

NSU Students Lead in International Biotechnology Research

Dr. S. M. Bakhtiar Ul Islam assistant professor and research supervisor at NSU’s Department of Biochemistry and Microbiology, praised the students’ performance:

“This achievement is a source of pride not only for our students but for the entire nation. It reflects NSU’s research excellence and the creativity of Bangladesh’s young scientific minds.”

First Place: Discovery of Thermostable Enzyme-Producing Bacillus Strains

Md. Safayet Sahib and his team won 1st place in the Industrial Biotechnology category for their research titled:

“From Bangladeshi Soil to Genomic Insight: Discovery of Thermostable Bacillus Strains with High Amylase and Protease Activity.”

Supervised by Dr. Bakhtiar, the study focused on isolating heat-tolerant Bacillus bacteria from Bangladeshi soil, capable of producing commercially valuable enzymes such as amylase and protease. These enzymes are crucial in multiple sectors including:

Textile industry
Detergent manufacturing
Pharmaceuticals
Food processing

Dr. Bakhtiar emphasized the global demand for thermostable enzymes and the opportunity for Bangladesh to fill this gap by establishing a biotechnology industry focused on enzyme production.

First Runner-Up: Enhancing Enzyme Efficiency with Metal Ions

Tasnim Rahman and her team earned the first runner-up position for their project:

“Effect of Metal Ions on the Enzymatic Efficiency of Amylase and Protease Producer KTH 205.”

This research explored how various metal ions influence enzyme activity, offering practical implications for optimizing enzyme applications in industrial settings.

Special Recognition: Investigating Intracellular Bacteria in Poultry

Sheikh Adiba Tasneem and her team received special honors for their innovative research:

“The Silent Invaders: Unmasking Intracellular Bacteria in Chicken PBMCs.”

This study focuses on bacterial infections within chicken immune cells, which has significant implications for animal health, food safety and public health surveillance in poultry farming.

Advancing Biotechnology Education and Innovation in Bangladesh

The success of NSU students at an international platform demonstrates the growing research capacity of Bangladeshi universities and the country’s potential to contribute to the global biotechnology industry.

“If this trend continues,” said Dr. Bakhtiar, “Bangladesh will soon be recognized as a leader in biotechnology research and innovation.”

NSU is now inviting industry partners, investors and collaborative researchers to bring these student-led research innovations to the commercial market.
