Daffodil International University - DIU Speciality : English Language & Literature
programme: BA (hons) English

After completing school life, the place where we spend the longest part of our educational journey is the university. I feel privileged to study at such a green campus like Daffodil International University. It has one of the largest green campuses in Bangladesh, which truly refreshes and uplifts everyone’s mind.

Studying English Language and Literature at Daffodil International University is a blend of excitement, pressure, and personal growth. As a student, one of the things I appreciate most is how approachable many of the teachers are. Some of them genuinely care about whether you understand the material, not just whether you pass exams. When a class turns into a discussion instead of a lecture, it makes you feel that your thoughts truly matter.

That said, not every course reaches the same standard. Some classes can feel a bit repetitive or overly theory-based, especially when you’re looking for more practical work like creative writing, presentations, or real-world communication skills. At times, you have to push yourself beyond the syllabus if you truly want to improve your English.

Campus life adds another valuable dimension to the experience. There are opportunities to join clubs, participate in events, and connect with people from diverse backgrounds, which greatly helps in building confidence and communication skills. However, balancing everything—assignments, exams, and personal life—can sometimes feel overwhelming.

Overall, being an English literature student here is not just about reading novels or analyzing poems. It’s about gradually finding your voice, learning how to express ideas, and growing into someone who can think critically. It may not be perfect, but with motivation, it can be a truly meaningful journey.

Daffodil International University gives you a good Campus life with the opportunities they provide such as clubs, CDC (that posts jobs for students time to time), HRDI (student development), it’s eventful nature, a beautiful campus etc.

Things I didn’t like :
– Fixed Courses (takes the whole day for which students can’t work part-time, they have to attend and wait for classes the whole day)
– Less focus on practical works and research based work, more on theory
– Canteen food is expensive
– Bus cards are unfairly expensive and transport staff are rude sometimes

Things I like :
– Green and eco-friendly campus
– Student Activities
– Career opportunities and the Erasmus programme (one semester abroad)
– The clubs are very energetic
– Personal Exploration can help a student improve a lot in the university
– The library is good (big and good collection of books). It has an aesthetic cafe along with it
– Students can work part-time in the university as students associates
– “One student one laptop” policy

Yes, I would recommend this University for the good points I mentioned. But yes, please do your research before taking admission as you know best what suits you best.
