Abstract
Online education has become a necessity during the recent Corona pandemic. It has been a
popular medium of education in universities of many developed and developing countries around the world
for a considerable period of time. This mode of education is now a necessity for higher education as well. But
in Bangladesh it has not gained popularity for a number of reasons and a switch to it has always been seen as a
challenge. This research investigates the challenges in implementing online higher education and prospects for
this type of education for Bangladeshi universities. This research follows the qualitative method and depends
on secondary data. The study finds out that in spite of a number of rational challenges in implementing
online education, it offers a lot of prospects for Bangladeshi higher education for all time. It suggests that
online education can be a good alternative of program delivery for universities of Bangladesh in view of a
number of practical factors. It recommends that at least a specific percentage of courses in any program of
universities may be offered online in the backdrop of challenges problems prevailing in universities and the
prospects it will offer to our higher education providers.
