More than 90 global universities took part in Eduko Pathways Bangladesh’s International Education Expo 2025 to empower future Bangladeshi scholars.
The expo, hosted by Eduko Pathways Bangladesh at the Midas Center in Dhanmondi on Thursday, attracted universities from across the USA, UK, Australia, Canada, Malaysia, the Netherlands, France, and several European countries.
The event brought together university representatives and admission delegates from some of the most highly ranked and innovative institutions in the world, offering students a rare opportunity to explore cutting-edge undergraduate and postgraduate programs tailored for 2026 intakes.
From tuition fee waivers to merit-based scholarships, universities participating in the expo extended exclusive offers and on-spot assessment opportunities to eligible Bangladeshi students—helping many take their first confident step toward a world-class education.
“This expo is not just an event—it’s a vision put into action,” said Thomas Gomes, CEO of Eduko Pathways Bangladesh.
“Too often, students in our country are held back by misinformation, lack of access, or fear of complex procedures. Our goal is to make international education simpler, smarter, and more accessible by connecting them directly with university officials who can provide clear answers and real support.”
Throughout the day, hundreds of students, along with their parents, thronged the Midas Center—asking questions, submitting documents, and discovering study destinations and programs aligned with their academic goals and career aspirations.
Some of the participating institutions included top names from Group of Eight universities in Australia, leading public universities in the USA and Canada, and specialized schools from the UK and continental Europe offering programs in engineering, business, health sciences, computer science, artificial intelligence, creative arts, and much more.
“What makes this event special is not just the volume of global representation, but the depth of conversation students are having—one-on-one—with the people who will actually review their applications,” Gomes emphasized.
“When a student meets a faculty or international recruitment officer face-to-face and talks about tuition flexibility, program relevance, or graduate outcomes, that builds a level of trust and clarity no online search can offer,” he added.
