Begumgonj Textile Engineering College, Noakhali is an engineering educational institute in Bangladesh and operates under the University of Chittagong.

Educational Constitution is under the University of Chittagong , Science Faculty. People's Republic of Bangladesh.

History

Begumgonj Textile Engineering College, Noakhali has a historical background. During the British colonial rule from 1911 to 1929, thirty three peripatetical Weaving School was established in East Bengal to meet Textile Technician by offering Artisan level course of 6 months duration. Begumgonj Textile Engineering College, Noakhali is one of them which was established in 1918. In 1968 it was upgraded to District Weaving School offering 1 year course and in 1981 District Textile Institute offering 2 years certificate course in Textile Technology.But the certificate course was not acceptable to the industry. In 1993 a 3-year Diploma course was introduced under Bangladesh Technical Education Board(BTEB) which treated as a mile stone for the Textile education. Duration of this course was extended to 4-years in 2001.

In order to meet the challenge of increasing demand of new sophisticated & latest technology, Government decided to up grade this Institute to B.Sc. in Textile engineering College in 2007 to offer B.Sc. in Textile Engineering course affiliated by the University of Chittagong.

Career Prospects

The technological knowledge and skills of Textile engineers are highly valued by textile manufacturing companies. The industry realizes that its future depend upon the quality of its technology and managers, because the quality of product and productivity play the vital role for exporting garments. Our graduates play a great role in quality production & management. As a result export in garments sector now a days reached about 76% of the total export of the country. The majority of textile graduates take up posts in the Textile Manufacturing Industry as Process or Plant Managers, Development Engineers or Technologists. Recent graduates have found employment in the areas of Production Management, Design, Textile Testing & Quality Assurance, New Product Development, Buying House, Commercial Banks, Customs etc. At present there is a huge demand of textile engineers in Bangladesh.
