Introduction:
The inception of the TECN Alumni Association can be traced back to an Iftar Party organized for the inaugural batch on July 10, 2015. Subsequently, a more formal assembly took place on June 18, 2016, in the presence of esteemed alumni from various batches.
During this gathering, Hriday Hira, the convenor of the first batch, along with notable individuals including Tariqul Islam, Jony Das, A N M Ataullah from the same batch, Mohiuddin Atik, SM Suman Xiku, Md Alamin from the second batch, Shailen Saha, Abdullah Mohammad Al Amin from the third batch and M Kamrul Hasan Selim, Pronob Roy from the fourth batch, convened to deliberate on the establishment of an organized entity. Additionally, the committee included four IT advisors: Md. Saidul Karim Riaz from the first batch, Mohammad Imranul Haque Shimul from the second batch, Md Tarek Aziz from the third batch, and Shantanu Shuvro from the fourth batch. Their concerted efforts led to the formulation of a comprehensive constitution and organizational framework.
The culmination of these efforts materialized through a successful election held on March 26, 2017. Remarkably, the Constitution received unanimous endorsement from all members, leading to the official recognition of the TECN Alumni Association.
This commendable endeavor demonstrates the value of alumni associations in fostering connections among graduates, facilitating networking opportunities, and providing support to educational institutions. Should you require further elucidation or wish to share more about the association, please feel free to communicate your intentions.
