> Membership rules (who can join):
Any undergraduate student of the University of Rajshahi.
> What makes us different:
Firstly, in today's world of increased competition, the importance and urgency of standing out are necessary. A mere undergraduate or postgraduate degree may not be enough to excel in this highly competitive world. Experts have repeatedly stressed the importance of developing various skills and enrolling oneself in professional degrees. We are the first organization that promotes professional degree(s) & postgraduate diploma(s) and shares necessary information regarding them with the students and attempts to arrange joint programs with the degree-offering bodies in the University of Rajshahi. Secondly, a club or organization measures its performance by the success of the program it arranged. But we evaluate ourselves by the development we achieved regarding the skills of our members. The development of skills of our members will be our KPI. And to ensure it, we introduced Monthly Development Cycle (MDC) for the very first time among the University of Rajshahi's co-curricular bodies.
