Evolution of veterinary education in
Bangladesh
• The Veterinary education has undergone 3 major
changes in Bangladesh after the cessation of the British
colonial period:
– A period of Diploma course inherited from the British
colonial period transformed into Bachelor’s degree
course (1947)
– Second change emerged with the establishment of the
Bangladesh (Pakistan) Agricultural University
(1961>>1971)
– At the beginning of 1990’s Third change has evolved in
veterinary education with the establishment of new
veterinary colleges to overcome past weakness and to
address the emerging issues

Evolution of veterinary education in
Bangladesh
• Three major elements of Third changes:
– Broad based curriculum incorporating basic
animal science (20-25%), basic and social
sciences (5-7%) to the mainstream veterinary
courses(68-75%) in the undergraduate
curriculum.
– A new key focus placed on learning at off-campus
(work based learning-Internship) in veterinary
curriculum
– Graduates capable to provide an integrated one
window service to the community.

veterinary institute

Demands of Veterinarian
Student choice 3rd position and foreign students
like Nepal, India, Sudan, Nigeria
Government Needs more veterinarians for
public service including
improvement of animal industries
Job market Veterinary pharmaceuticals and
other govt. officer
Private practice Increasing
Self service Dairy and poultry farm

Artificial Insemination
 There is proverbs “Milk and
Rice are the main food of
Bangladeshi people”
 But now a days poor in productivity
in terms of milk, meat and calf
 In 1960, AI was started for dairy
cattle improvement.

Conceptionrate(%)
Different genotypes of cows

 Lacking of diagnosing tools for early
conception failure
 Public not interested due to lower conception
rate
 High environment temperature
 Most of the cow reared by landless people
• One house-one farm
 Quality control and lack of trained manpower
 Lot of non-descriptive breed

Govt. initiation to overcome this….
• Launch a project on
extension of AI
programme and
Embryo transfer
technology (2017)…..
– Set up a AI point in a
remote area
– Training of field AI
technician
– Set up a new bull
stations and ET

Remarks
• Have a lot of opportunities to do research on
our native cow (Red Chittagong cattle)
• Contributory and collaboratory research
funding agency essential
