摘要:Earthquake is one of the major threats for Bangladesh for decades. In this study, we have tried to investigate the level of awareness about the earthquake among the university students in Bangladesh. Firstly, we have briefly discussed the risks of earthquake in Bangladesh, talked about the historic earthquakes and recently found threat or research. After that, we have analyzed our data collected from the survey we have conducted. We have got some positive results as well as a few horrifying scenarios. Encouraging results have found when we have asked some important matters that everyone should know about earthquake. But knowledge about the safety in the construction of the buildings and following the rules is quite opposite to that. Suggestions are offered in some definite sectors where improvement is required, and the government should push themselves harder in those sectors.
