Join the Most Prestigious Degree, Catch the Desire Career

We are currently offering B.Sc. (Hon’s) in Agriculture Degree under the Department of Agriculture, FCUB

Bangladesh is basically an agricultural country, where most of the people are directly or indirectly dependent on agriculture. Agriculture plays a vital role to meet the food and nutrition demand, reducing poverty and economic development in Bangladesh. Agriculture creates employment opportunities for many people in our country. Basically, agriculture is the key to the development of our country. From that point of view, First Capital University of Bangladesh (FCUB) has been conducting 04 (four) years B.Sc.
