All over the world, Bangladesh is the 2nd garment exporter country. According to the BGMEA reports for 2021, there are about 4000+ garments and 500+ textile industries in Bangladesh. Approximately 4.8 million people work in the textile industry. So, there’s a huge career opportunity in the Textile sector. That’s why lots of people are dreaming of studying textile engineering. We will discuss Butex Affiliated 8 Textile Engineering College in Bangladesh in this context. We are going to learn all textile engineering college reviews.
Textile Colleges in Bangladesh
Textile engineering colleges in Bangladesh offer several academic and professional bachelor’s degrees in textile fields. Several colleges and technical institutes offer diplomas, B.Sc., M.Sc., Post Graduate Diploma, and Ph.D. from their assigned faculties upon certification courses. Textile courses obtainable in these colleges include spinning, weaving, knitting, dyeing, printing, finishing, apparel production processes, merchandising, and fashion design.
Butex and Textile Colleges
In South Asia, the Bangladesh University of Textile (BUTex) is the only specialized textile university. They offer B.Sc & M.Sc in textile engineering degrees. But BUTex has only 600 seat capability for a B.Sc Engineering degree. That’s why many people’s dreams couldn’t come true studying textile engineering in BUTex.
But BUTex has 8 affiliated colleges, one for diploma textile engineering degree holders named Bangabandhu Textile Engineering College. Many people are studying in this affiliated college. The college provides the best textile education in Bangladesh.
Butex Affiliated Textile Engineering Colleges are academically monitored by the Bangladesh University of Textile. But it’s administratively governed by the Department of Textiles of the Ministry of Textiles and Jute. So, These colleges are the best choice after Butex to study Textile Engineering in Bangladesh.
Now, I want to say about BUTex affiliated Textile Engineering college details information & admission process. And the All Textile Engineering College in Bangladesh Review.

Butex Affiliated Textile Engineering Colleges History
From 1911 to 1929, During the British regime, 33 peripatetic weaving schools were established in East Bengal. Resulting from “Shwodeshi Andolon.” These were:
- Textile Engineering College, Noakhali;
- Chittagong Textile Engineering College;
- Pabna Textile Engineering College.
These weaving schools have changed the requirements for a textile technician. They were offering artisan-level 6-month courses. Then in 1980, the courses of the weaving school were upgraded to 2 years certificate course in textile technology.
In 1994, a 3 years Diploma course was introduced in the institution under the Technical Education Board (BTEB). It was considered a milestone for textile education in Bangladesh.
In 2001, The duration of the courses extended to 4 years. The Government of Bangladesh introduced 4 years of BSc in Textile Engineering (TE) programs, abolishing the Diploma in Textile Colleges from the 2006 – 2007 session.
13 January 2006, Textile Engineering colleges were declared. Since then, in the 2012 – 2013 session, the college has been affiliated with the BUTex.
