A number of Bangladeshi students have recently made an impact in global robotics competitions, but robotics education at the tertiary level in Bangladesh is still very much in the early stages. Bangladesh has secured second place in IRC in the International Robotics Competition held in Mumbai in 2014. The third position in the International Robotics Challenge (IRC) Competition-2013 has been achieved by Bangladesh Engineering University (Buet). Four modern laboratories – an Electrical and Electronics Lab, Mechatronics Lab, Engineering Drawing Lab and Computer Lab – have already been set up under the RMED. Two more specialised labs – a Robotics Lab and Control Systems Lab – are to be set up in the near future.
