It is our great pleasure to inform you that, the Green University Textile Club (GUTC) has recently published “সবুজ সুতোর ক্যানভাস”, an online magazine. The cover unwrapping ceremony of the publication was held yesterday.

The aim behind the publication of “সবুজ সুতোর ক্যানভাস” was to promote creativity and develop both technical and non-technical writing skills among the students of the department. It contains numerous technical articles on textiles written by students, self-written poems, short stories. There is also a segment to showcase the passion for nature photography of some of the students. Another interesting and important part of the magazine is experience sharing from the alumni members of the Department of Textile Engineering, specially, experience of job interview can be particularly helpful for the students of the department.
