Abstract: This article explores the current state of higher education in Bangladesh, highlighting key challenges and potential opportunities for improvement. Despite significant expansion in the number of universities and student enrollment over the past decades, the sector faces persistent issues such as inadequate infrastructure, shortage of qualified faculty, limited research output, political interference, and a mismatch between academic programs and job market demands. The article also examines the impact of globalization and digital transformation on the higher education landscape. Prospects for progress include policy reforms, increased investment in education, international collaborations, and the integration of technology into teaching and learning. The paper concludes with recommendations aimed at fostering a more equitable, efficient, and forward-looking higher education system in Bangladesh.
