  1. I was interested to study in robotics. Unfortunately in Bangladesh there is no scope to study in robotics field. I got a chance in Bangladesh University of Engineering Technology(BUET), Dhaka to study civil engineering(Undergraduate level). June 2014 I will received Bachelor of Science(B.Sc.) in Civil Engineering degree. Still I am interested to do research in the field of Robotics. Please let me know is it possible or not.
    According to the advertisement public examinations are ok.
