Bangladesh is poised to ascend as a prominent developing nation on the global platform in the coming years. The Bangladesh Institute of Policy Studies (BIPS) is committed to facilitating this transition by formulating pragmatic public policies meticulously designed to reinforce essential elements of economic resilience, financial stability, educational progression, legal, judicial, and administrative reforms, and other fundamental intellectual frameworks crucial for the sustainable development of the nation.
Operating as a non-profit, independent think-tank, our mission revolves around contributing to this evolutionary process through exhaustive research, incisive analysis, and evidence-based recommendations. Our endeavors are focused on fostering the rule of law, upholding human rights, advocating for democratic governance, championing market-oriented policies, and fostering a culture of accountability and transparency within Bangladesh’s institutional landscape.
We cordially invite scholars, researchers, civic society leaders, academics, and journalists, both within and outside Bangladesh, regardless of political or ideological affiliation, to express their interest in collaborating with our research teams as Research Fellows, Senior Research Fellows, and Distinguished Research Fellows. The Selection for our Research Pools will be based on the applicant’s educational background, research proficiency, and professional experience.
