Que: Do you think that studying Fundamentals of Public Health as a Course should be mandatory for all University students across Bangladesh?
Ans: I think that studying Fundamentals of Public Health as a Course should be mandatory for all University students across Bangladesh. Bangladesh is a densely populated country with a myriad of problems. Dhaka has the highest population density, followed by some other cities. Traffic jams, air pollution, and sound pollution are major problems, mainly in the capital. Several studies have shown that Dhaka is the second-most polluted city in the world. One reason for this is that Dhaka is, intentionally or unintentionally, becoming the centre of all activities in Bangladesh, and no steps have been taken to mitigate this alarming issue. One of the most important roles of the public health field is to create an evidence-based consensus around specific health problems and their proposed solutions. So I think that studying Fundamentals of Public Health as a Course should be mandatory for all University students across Bangladesh.
