Scope for advanced studies overseas leading to higher degrees
We feel that students back in Bangladesh are lagging behind their counterparts in other countries like China, Korea or India in exploring the possibilities of doing higher studies in various branches of Biotechnology in the USA. We will try to provide as much information as we can to help our students to steer them for getting admission and assistantship/scholarship for Ph.D. studies. We earnestly hope that GNOBB will be a useful site for Bangladeshi students who are aiming to do their higher studies in the field of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology.
