French Ambassador-designate to Bangladesh, M. Jean-Marc Séré-Charlet, has encouraged Bangladeshi students seeking to study abroad to consider France as a destination offering top-quality education, affordable tuition fees, and a vibrant international environment.
He made the remarks while speaking at the “Choose France Tour” at the Alliance Française de Dhaka on Monday.
The two-day event, now in its second edition, will conclude on Tuesday in Chattogram.
Highlighting the growing interest from French universities in Bangladeshi students, the ambassador noted that while ten universities participated in last year’s event, twelve are taking part this year.
Addressing concerns about language barriers, the ambassador said, “Let me reassure you that you can live in France nowadays as most people in big cities speak English. Universities also offer courses entirely in English, so it is not an issue.”
According to Campus France Bangladesh , the French government agency hosting the event, students from Bangladesh can choose from nearly 1,700 English-taught programmes across a range of disciplines, including business, management, engineering, sciences, law, social sciences, and the arts.
