How BGMEA University of Fashion & Technology Prepare You for your Career in Textile Engineering

 

Practical Knowledge

 

Working at a textile production site and operating the various machines and equipment for the various processes involved should be familiar to textile engineers. As a textile engineer, this is the most basic and important requirement. BUFT has the most advanced textile lab facilities in Bangladesh to practically help students learn every aspect. The institute's students can use the required software with comfort and ease. Again, the course curriculum of BUFT focuses more on technical proficiency.

 

Creativity

 

Textile engineers need to have excellent design skills. To develop these skills, one must be creative. This is why the advanced courses of the institute are designed with live projects and lab work. Students must develop the process first on paper, then on textile machines to increase their creativity.

 

Team Building

 

A textile engineer must have excellent interpersonal and team-building skills. They must work together in team settings so that you can make a valuable contribution as a textile engineer. BUFT instructors emphasize teamwork to help build teamwork skills. To solve a problem, the students must form teams and ensure that they achieve the required results. Furthermore, the student must participate in the research.

 

Building Communication Skill

 

 Communication skills are essential for textile engineers. It is also important for them to work on them to effectively communicate their ideas and thoughts. With the career sessions and alumni association, BUFT allows the students to build good communication with industrial persons.

 

Management

 

Textile engineers must also have excellent time management skills. The project must be completed within the specified timeframe if they want to finish it on time. Students must ensure that each project phase is completed within the specified timeframe. It is essential that they are punctual and disciplined in their work to manage time effectively.
