Network of Instrument Technical personnel and User scientists of Bangladesh (NITUB)

(A Network Supported by International Science Programme (ISP) under the International Programme in the Chemical Science (IPICS), Uppsala University, Sweden.)

The registration number of NITUB is S-7887(1077)08.

Training programmes

One of the main objective of NITUB is to organize training programmes. Since its inception in July 1994, NITUB has been conducting various training programmes on scientific equipment such as :

  • Infrared, Ultra violet & Visible Spectrophotometers (IR & UV-VIS),
  • Gas Chromatograph (GC),
  • Gas Chromatograph-Mass Spectrometer (GC-MS),
  • High Performance Liquid Chromatograph (HPLC),
  • Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS),
  • X-ray Powder diffraction technique (XRPD)
  • Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectrometer.
  • Liquid chromatography (LC) tandem mass spectrometry (MS)
  • Common laboratory equipment
  • Common medical equipment

For user scientists and technical personnel to update their knowledge and improve their skill on the use of the equipment. Training programmes are generally limited to 15-20 participants and are run for 5-6 days. Four-six such programmes/workshops are run pre year. Eich programme includes both theoretical and practical sessions. Circular of training programme is posted in NITUB’s website (www.nitub.org) as well as hard copies are sent to research organizations and universities by post.

So far, NITUB has conducted 88 th such training programmes through which 1348 scientists, young faculty members, graduate students and technical personnel have been trained. (Details of the training programmes list are given in [Table ,PDF) and share in the bar diagram below.

NITUB is continuously getting requests from young scientists and technical personnel to conduct training programmes more frequently to train more scientists and technical personnel so that they can take care of their laboratories. NITUB will continue to conduct such training programmes.
