An increasing number of students from Bangladesh is choosing to study in China in recent years. Education cooperation is a key part of the China-Bangladesh relationship that has been recently strengthened even more after the visit of the Chinese president Xi Jinping in Bangladesh.
Many Bangladeshi students are studying in Shanghai Jiao Tong University in a variety of disciplines like, Life sciences, Bio- technology, Pharmacy, Computer science, Mechanical Engineering, Aeronautics and Astronautics and Business Management.
Sharmin Reza Chowdhury, a PHD student of Pharmacy in the university, says while talking to CCTV that she is grateful to the China government for the funding because otherwise it would not be possible for her.
Among the 26 Bangladeshi students currently studying in Jiao Tong University, 15 are pursuing their PHD and all the 26 are on scholarships from China central government, China's municipal government or the university authority.
The scholarships are part of a co operation program between Beijing and Dhaka.
Graduate student in Business in the university, Khalid Hossain says to CCTV that it's a very good sign for Bangladesh that so many students from the country are coming to the fast developing country, China, to study.
More Bangladeshi students are getting interested to study abroad day by day and China makes a good option for them as Chinese government offers full scholarship.
