My request to the people in charge of making changes is to make this transparent and open to all including the NRBs (Non-Resident-Bangladeshis). There are many Bangladeshis teaching in universities across the world. They can share their experiences of working in world's renowned universities. It can be done using Bangladeshi consulates in different countries, asking for their opinion using websites etc.

I would like to put two recommendations here. One is to replace the two positions ---chancellor and vice chancellor by one position called "president". This will stop political interference. Currently, the chancellor is either the prime minister or the president of the country. They are political persons and we have seen different student bodies calling strike to stop their entry into the campuses. Second, the president will be a very professional position. He will be highly paid and his contract will be for two years and can be renewed after judging his performance. The president's position needs to be open to NRBs. I even believe the president of any engineering university can be any national who is very experienced in similar positions.

The performance of the president will be judged by reduction of session jam, connecting university research with different companies and lifting the university ranking. This may sound like the coach of the cricket team!
