National Museum of Science and Technology (NMST) (Bengali: জাতীয় বিজ্ঞান ও প্রযুক্তি জাদুঘর) in Dhaka, Bangladesh was founded on April 26, 1965, by the Pakistani government and became a part of Bangladesh's Ministry of Science and Technology following the Bangladesh Liberation War. It was first based in the Dhaka Public Library, and moved a number of times before its permanent home was completed in 1981. The NMST serves as Bangladesh's only science museum and organizes science education activities at a national level.
Exhibits
The museum has several galleries such as its physical science gallery, fun science gallery (1 & 2), biological science gallery, technological gallery, IT gallery, space science gallery, young scientist's gallery, science library, a sky observatory, and science park. In addition to its permanent exhibits the museum also puts on popular science lectures, scientific film shows and a children's science festival.
National Science and Technology Week
NMST arranges National Science & Technology Week every year both at a district and national level. Only two participants from each district (one from junior level and the other from senior or college level) can participate at the national level. Students whose projects are selected as viable from each science week, are encouraged to further develop their projects (see below).

=NMST assists with student science projects both financially and technologically. Each year NMST selects potential projects according to national interest and socioeconomic benefit, and these projects are developed for a three-month period. Each student is given a monthly allowance and assigned a mentor who is an expert in the relevant field. In addition, a special workshop and all raw materials are provided.
