Teaching  Experience at  Bangladesh,  British,  Australian,  Saudi Arabian and Malaysian Universities:

 

                        Total university teaching experience in both undergraduate (Pass and Hons.) and postgraduate level will be of 50 years in 2020: 27 years in British and Australian Universities, 8 years in Saudi Arabian Universities, 10 years in Malaysia and 5 years in Bangladesh Universities. The medium of instruction throughout my student and service career was English.

                                    Programmed Course" designed specifically to fit in with the computer-aided

                                    teaching to minimize tutorial hours and labour costs involved. This
