Students of Universal College Bangladesh (UCB) will be provided with placement and internship opportunities at Prime Bank PLC under a certain arrangement.
UCB and Prime Bank signed a memorandum of understanding on Tuesday for creating new opportunities for UCB graduates to launch their professional careers.
Under this agreement, the talented young resources will further benefit from training sessions, knowledge-sharing programs, guest lectures, career guidance, and mentorship to support and fast-track their professional development.
“Besides ensuring world-class educational opportunities, at UCB, we are equipping students with scopes for practical experiences that enhance their academic achievements, and give them a realistic idea of the market and its demands,” CEO of STS Group Manas Singh said.
Prime Bank Deputy Managing Director Nazeem A Choudhury appreciated UCB for coming up with such plans for industry-academia collaboration, which he said “helps employers to filter out the top talents who are already trained for facing the fast-tempo markets.” “We look forward to supporting the career growth of UCB students through providing hands-on learning and mentorship,” he added.
Among others, Prime Bank DMD and Head of HRD Ziaur Rahman, UCB COO Kingshuk Gupta, CFO of STS Capital Ltd SM Rahmatul Mujeeb, and its Head of Finance Mustafa Waki Chowdhury and Assistant Manager SM Risalat Rahman were present at the signing ceremony.
