Debjani Ghosh, an engineer from Chattogram, has played a key role in creating the world’s first carbon-emission-free passenger aircraft, the HY4. This groundbreaking four-seater, powered by fuel cells and batteries, made its historic first flight on September 29, 2016, from Stuttgart Airport, Germany.

The scientific leadership of the HY4 project came from the German Aerospace Center (DLR) in partnership with the University of Ulm, where Debjani worked as a PhD researcher. Her contribution focused on developing an innovative silicon carbide-based power electronics architecture to convert DC electricity from the fuel cell and battery into AC for the aircraft’s propulsion. She also designed an interface to manage power flow according to control strategies and battery charging needs, ensuring efficiency, reliability, and reduced weight.

Born in Chattogram on October 30, 1988, Debjani studied at Aparnacharan Girls’ High School and Chattogram Public School & College before earning her bachelor’s degree in electrical and electronics engineering from Chittagong University of Engineering and Technology (CUET). After teaching at Premier University, Chattogram, she moved to Germany, where she completed her master’s in power engineering from RWTH Aachen University and her PhD from the University of Ulm.

Her work on the HY4 aligns with her long-standing vision to develop environmentally friendly technologies and renewable energy solutions, marking a proud moment for Bangladesh in the field of global aerospace innovation.

Dristi Chakma, a BUET architecture graduate from the Chittagong Hill Tracts, has earned international acclaim after her work was selected among the top entries in London’s prestigious Drawing of the Year Awards 2025. Chosen from over 7,000 submissions, her piece is featured in the Drawing of the Year 2025 publication.

Growing up in Rangamati, Dristi’s early connection to landscape and community shaped her design sensibility. After graduating from BUET, she worked at VITTI Sthapati Brindo Ltd and taught at MIST before pursuing a Master of Architecture at the University of Melbourne under the Australia Awards Scholarship. Now based in London, she continues to explore the intersection of structure and storytelling.

Her award-winning illustration, Dissemination and Storage: Archive as Spectacle, reimagines museum spaces where artifacts move autonomously and visitors are restricted—challenging conventional notions of cultural display and control.
Her inclusion in the internationally respected exhibition marks a milestone not only in her career but also for Bangladeshi women in architecture.

Despite the profession’s male dominance, especially in South Asia, Dristi remains optimistic. “Things are changing,” she says, “and it’s encouraging to see women not just participating, but leading.” Her journey—from the hills of Rangamati to global recognition—demonstrates the power of rooted creativity to resonate worldwide.
