Bangladesh
Birmingham is very proud of its multi-cultural background, including a huge Bangladeshi population.
Being in Birmingham you can feel at home with local Halal supermarkets, Halal restaurants brining you food from Bangladesh to your door step.
Birmingham City University is located in the heart of the second largest city in the UK, on our door steps we have the home of the Balti Triangle bringing you food close to home, we also have the main road in Birmingham to bring you all your local Asian dresses from Sari’s to Kurtha tops for men.
During Ramadan our Coventry road is packed with food stalls and henna artists getting you ready for EID celebrations, and leading the largest EID prayer in Europe in the Small Heath Park every year.
When you come to Birmingham City University you would not think you have left the Bangladeshi traditions behind you.
Birmingham City University have partnerships in Bangladesh including American International University, Dhaka Centre of Law and Economics and International University of Bangladesh Agriculture and Technology.
