About

buX is Brac University’s online learning platform. All online courses are housed on buX. This includes lecture videos, documents, discussion boards and assignments. Students will access their courses through buX and all faculty will post their course materials on buX. Online learning is not meant to substitute for in class learning. But, in the period when physical classes are not possible, buX will try to give as close to a live-class experience as possible. Student discussions on buX will occur through discussion boards, interactive assignments and online office hours. The main philosophy of buX is to enable students to learn wherever they are, whatever their internet connectivity is, and to make learning interactive and lively.
