Brac University has signed an agreement with the University of Lincoln recently on academic cooperation.
Prof Vincent Chang, vice-chancellor of Brac University, signed the agreement with Prof Neal Juster, vice-chancellor of University of Lincoln, while Prof Chang was visiting the university on an invitation, said a press release on Tuesday.
The agreement enables Brac University students to start their Bachelor of Business Administration degree at the university and finish it at the University of Lincoln with a scholarship.
It also centres on the promotion of joint research and publication, student, administrative staff and faculty mobility between the two institutions.
The agreement also creates opportunities for joint initiatives to pursue each institution's mission and vision, joint PhD supervision and support for the faculty of Brac Business School and support for progression to postgraduate programs at the University of Lincoln.
As part of a continuous drive towards internationalization, Brac University has recently entered into collaboration arrangements with a number of international institutions.
Prof Chang was recently invited to visit Princeton University, where he met with university President Prof Christopher Eisgruber and its academic officials to discuss the collaboration potential between the two universities.
Brac University has also embarked on collaborations with other international universities like University of Kent and California NorthState University.
