The Dhaka School of Economics (DScE) (Bengali: ঢাকা স্কুল অব ইকোনমিকস) is an undergraduate and postgraduate institution of the University of Dhaka. DScE was founded in April 2010, following the model of the London School of Economics,[1] to promote higher studies and research in economics and related subjects.[2] Its goal is to accommodate the fast-growing demand for well-trained economists and professionals in related subjects,[3] to contribute to teaching, research and evaluation, policymaking and implementation of nation-building programs. DscE has developed a Socio-Economic Data Bank[4] to accomplish this goal.

History

Bangladesh Economic Association (BEA),[5] led by its then President Qazi Kholiquzzaman Ahmad, took decisive steps that led to the founding of Dhaka School of Economics (DScE). Its establishment was announced by Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina[6] on 8 April 2010 at the biennial conference of BEA. DScE is devoted to postgraduate studies:Bachelor, masters, post-graduate diploma, and eventually MPhil and PhD.[7] [8] For their future permanent campus, DScE also own 180 katha (39,000 sq. meter) land in Purbachal New Town[9] near Dhaka.
