Dhaka University Cultural Society - DUCS

Dhaka University Cultural Society (DUCS) is dedicated to creating opportunities for students who have interest in culture to immerse themselves in the all-embracing spectrum of heritage & culture. Through our objectives and activities, DUCS serves as a catalyst in uniting
current and already established former students according to their area of interest, eventually helping to develop their skills. Established on September 5, 2015 with the efforts of some youngsters with the aim of creating a central platform for the healthy practice of various forms of cultural activities such as dance, song, recitation, acting, literature etc. Retaining the ideology of the freedom war of Bangladesh, our organization is currently progressing successfully with more than nine hundred young members. We have been providing students with opportunities to discover, practice and improve their talents through various events and workshops on skills development.
