St Francis Xavier Girls High School is one of the best school for the girls of Old Dhaka. This school is located just beside the Gregory's school. Since it is a girl’s school, the entry may not be entertained by the school authority.
As this school remains close at Saturday as weekend, so you can take a chance to visit the school on holiday. This school was built at 1912 under the same board of the Gregory's school, but later on the board is separated, and now controlling by a different authority.
There are two main building inside the school premise. One is “U” shaped. Half of that building used for the kindergarten students, and rest of it for the school's girls as for hostel. The classroom building is “L” shaped and this one was built at 1993. This white colored white shaped building looks nice, and it has a basketball ground in front of it.
There is a small garden inside the school premise. You can easily find a statue of mother Merry who is holding the earth. This garden is profound with several flower plants and small fruit trees. Also at the other end of the ground, you will find a flat labyrinth which is nicely decorated.
The playground for the students is a bit smaller. Also one corner of the playground contains several instruments for the kids, like the seesaw, slipper etc. There is a small two stored building inside the school premise which almost looks like the brother house of the Gregory's school. It is actually used to keep the exam papers and other stuffs; just like a kind of store house.

Dhaka University of Engineering & Technology (DUET), Gazipur (Bengali: ঢাকা প্রকৌশল ও প্রযুক্তি বিশ্ববিদ্যালয় Ḍhākā Prokoushol Ō Prayukti Bishshobiddalôe) or DUET is one of the reputed public university for the study of engineering in Bangladesh. The university offer four-year Bachelor degrees in Civil Engineering, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Industrial and Production Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Textile Engineering and Five-years Bachelor of Architecture. Only the Diploma in Engineering holders can avail themselves of enrolling here for Bachelor Degree in different branches of Engineering and Architecture. It is also one of the nine PhD granting research universities of Bangladesh.
Every year, around 540 students get enrolled in undergraduate programs to study engineering and architecture in this institution. In undergraduate admission test, only about top 10% students can get admitted among 5,000 selected candidates. The total number of teachers is about 300. The University has continued to expand over the last three decades. This includes the construction of new academic buildings, halls of residence.
The University originated in 1980 as College of Engineering at its temporary campus at Tejgaon, Dhaka under the University of Dhaka offering four years ' Bachelor degree in Civil, Electrical and Electronic, Mechanical Engineering 'to help meet the growing need for advanced engineering education in Bangladesh. After a short span of time, College of Engineering is renamed as Dhaka Engineering College (DEC). Then the DEC shifted to its present permanent campus Gazipur City in 1983. DEC was converted to Bangladesh Institute of Technology (BIT), Dhaka as a degree awarding Institute by the government ordinance in 1986 to find solutions to various problems it had been facing since its inception. The journey of BIT, Dhaka was not also so smooth. It faced many problems and could overcame some of the problems faced by DEC. To alleviate this situation, from September 2003, Dhaka University of Engineering & Technology (DUET), Gazipur was created out of BIT, Dhaka. DUET has ultimately turned into an Institution, which can now boost its commitment to quality engineering education and has established a good reputation all over the world for the quality of its graduate.

প্রকৌশল বিষয়ে লেখাপড়া করার জন্য গাজীপুরে অবস্থিত ঢাকা প্রকৌশল ও প্রযুক্তি বিশ্ববিদ্যালয় (ডুয়েট) হল দেশের অন্যতম জনপ্রিয় সরকারি বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়। এই বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ে যেসব বিষয়ে ডিগ্রী অর্জন করা যায় সেগুলোর মধ্যে রয়েছেঃ সিভিল ইঞ্জিনিয়ারিং, ইলেকট্রিকাল এবং ইলেক্ট্রনিক ইঞ্জিনিয়ারিং, ইণ্ডাসট্রিয়াল এন্ড প্রোডাকশন ইঞ্জিনিয়ারিং, মেকানিকাল ইঞ্জিনিয়ারিং, টেক্সটাইল ইঞ্জিনিয়ারিং এ চার বছর মেয়াদী ব্যাচেলর ডিগ্রী এবং স্থাপত্যবিদ্যায় পাঁচবছর মেয়াদী ব্যাচেলর ডিগ্রী। শুধুমাত্র ডিপ্লোমা ইন ইঞ্জিনিয়ারিং ডিগ্রীধারীরা এই বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ে প্রকৌশল এবং স্থাপত্যবিদ্যার বিভিন্ন শাখায় ব্যাচেলর ডিগ্রী অর্জনের জন্য ভর্তি হতে পারে। এছাড়া বাংলাদেশের নয়টি পিএইচডি ডিগ্রী প্রদানকারী বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ের মধ্যে একটি হল ডুয়েট।
প্রতি বছর এই বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ে প্রায় ৫৪০ জন ছাত্রছাত্রী প্রকৌশল এবং স্থাপত্যবিদ্যায় স্নাতক ডিগ্রী অর্জনের জন্য ভর্তি হয়ে থাকে। প্রতিবছর ভর্তি পরীক্ষায় প্রায় ৫০০০ জন পরীক্ষার্থীদের মধ্যে মাত্র ১০% ছাত্রছাত্রী এখানে ভর্তির সুযোগ পেয়ে থাকে। এই শিক্ষা প্রতিষ্ঠানে শিক্ষক ও শিক্ষিকার সংখ্যা প্রায় ৩০০ জন। নতুন একাডেমিক ভবন এবং বিভিন্ন ছাত্র ও ছাত্রী হল নির্মাণের মাধ্যমে বিগত তিন দশকে এই বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়টির প্রসার ঘটেছে।
বাংলাদেশে প্রকৌশলবিদ্যায় উচ্চশিক্ষা প্রদানের প্রয়োজনীয়তা মেটাতে ১৯৮০ সালে ঢাকা বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ের অধীনে ঢাকার তেজগাঁওয়ের অস্থায়ী এই বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়টি কলেজ অফ ইঞ্জিনিয়ারিং হিসেবে প্রতিষ্ঠা করা হয়। সেসময় এখান থেকে সিভিল ইঞ্জিনিয়ারিং, ইলেকট্রিকাল এবং ইলেক্ট্রনিক ইঞ্জিনিয়ারিং, মেকানিকাল ইঞ্জিনিয়ারিং বিষয়ে চার বছর মেয়াদী ব্যাচেলর ডিগ্রী অর্জন করা যেতো। কিছুদিন পরই কলেজ অফ ইঞ্জিনিয়ারিং এর নাম পরিবর্তন করে রাখা হয় ঢাকা ইঞ্জিনিয়ারিং কলেজ (ডিইসি) এবং ১৯৮৩ সালে ডিইসিকে গাজীপুরের স্থায়ী ক্যাম্পাসে নিয়ে যাওয়া হয়। প্রতিষ্ঠার পর থেকে সম্মুখীন হওয়া বিভিন্ন সমস্যা মোকাবেলায় ১৯৮৬ সালে সরকারের অর্ডিন্যান্সের মাধ্যমে ডিইসিকে বাংলাদেশ ইন্সটিটিউট অফ টেকনোলজি (বিআইটি) ঢাকাতে রুপান্তরিত করা হয়। ডিইসির সম্মুখীন হওয়া বিভিন্ন সমস্যার সমাধান করতে পারলেও বিআইটির যাত্রাপথ মোটেও মসৃণ ছিল না কারন বিআইটিকেও নানাবিধ সমস্যার সম্মুখীন হতে হয়েছিল। তাই সমস্যার সমাধানকল্পে ২০০৩ সালের সেপ্টেম্বরে বিআইটিকে ঢাকা প্রকৌশল ও প্রযুক্তি বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ে (ডুয়েট) রুপান্তর করা হয়। একটি প্রতিষ্ঠান হিসেবে প্রতিষ্ঠা পাওয়ার পাশাপাশি ডুয়েট বর্তমানে প্রকৌশলের উপর মানসম্মত শিক্ষা প্রদান করছে এবং এখান থেকে উত্তীর্ণ ছাত্রছাত্রীদের উঁচু মানের কারনে বিশ্বব্যাপী খ্যাতিও অর্জন করেছে।
