On March 4, 2022, at 10:00 a.m., a Faculty Alumni meeting was held at IUT Auditorium, presided over by Prof. Dr. Md. Anayet Ullah Patwari, Head of the MPE Department, to address various department-related recommendations and suggestions. A total of 40 MPE graduates who attended the meeting gave information about their current employment and other pertinent information. The Head of the Department then expressed his gratitude to all of the MPE Department's professors and alumni for attending the face-to-face meeting and began discussing the proposed agenda. HOD discussed the current state of the MPE department and recent achievements, including the MPE website, the addition of another 50 or more students in the coming academic year, the current syllabus, the MPE research cluster, and academia-industry collaboration. Then, all MPE department alumni participated and discussed issues such as curriculum changes, student mental health, industrial training programs in each semester, increased industry and research collaboration, implementation of a Central postgraduate research lab with cutting-edge facilities, laboratory operating hours, student skill development, and others. Finally, it was a very successful and informative discussion that will undoubtedly help our Department to move forward and lead nationally and globally.
Finally, we would like to thank all of the alumni who came to this event and helped make it a success despite having a very busy schedule in their daily life. We would like to thank Dr. A.S.M. Mojahidul Hoque and Prof. Dr. Engr. Md. Iqbal Mahmud for traveling such a long distance and sharing their wonderful ideas.
