Is it permissible for a wife—who adheres to the শরعي (Shari'i) dress code and does not unveil herself to men—to travel a distance of 60 km without a mahram, and attend mixed-gender lectures, in order to complete her postgraduate studies, knowing that her husband does not take money from her work and that she works in a private clinic at home and does not go out alone?
A woman's travel without a mahram is forbidden, regardless of the distance. Studying in mixed-gender environments is forbidden. Unveiling in front of non-mahram men is forbidden. None of these actions are permissible except out of necessity or dire need.
