Lab & amenities

Each and every department of Faculty of Science and Information Technology of Daffodil International University endeavors to provide its students adequate laboratory facilities in each semester. Most of the undergraduate courses of this Faculty are intensively laboratory oriented. We believe that a student can not learn the subject-matter of a course without having any hands-on experience in the laboratory. Keeping this in mind, from the very beginning, this Faculty is trying its level best to establish different laboratories and procure sophisticated equipment from home and abroad especially from USA, UK, Australia, Canada, Germany, Japan, Itali, China, South Korea, Taiwan, India etc. We have already established 25 laboratories. Each and every semester we are upgrading and improving our laboratories and their experiments. A brief description of each of these laboratories is given below:
