Message from Pro-Vice Chancellor

Professor Dr. Gour Gobinda Goswami

It gives me immense pleasure to work as the Pro-Vice-Chancellor of Uttara University (UU), a twenty-one-year-old leading Private University in Bangladesh which follows the US curricula where each discipline of education is complemented by strong liberal arts component. This university has been founded by Professor Dr. Azizur Rahman who graduated with a PhD in Economics from Vanderbilt University, USA and worked with US government for long time. The legacy of Professor Rahman who served for long time as the founding Vice-Chancellor has been rightly pursued by the current Vice-Chancellor Professor Eaysmin Ara Lekha who has a Ph.D. in Bangla Linguistic from Jadavpur University, the premier academic institution in India.

UU is a premier academic center of excellence where medium of instruction is English in all subjects except Bangla. UU provides enormous scope and potential for students all over the country who want to achieve higher education at an affordable cost. The University is situated near the Uttara Metro station, whereby it is connected to all areas of Dhaka City. There is also a timely free bus transport service connection to the campus from the city center to areas outside the city and the suburbs.

Currently, we are offering both Bachelor and Masters degree in fourteen disciplines from Arts, Social Science, Business and Engineering. Students completing these degrees from this University can easily compete with international level education around the world.

UU has a vibrant campus with modern infrastructural facilities and a student life with enjoyable environment in terms of sports, music and other cocurricular, and extra-curricular activities under different clubs and associations. We prepare our graduates with latest knowledge and skills which last for their whole life and can also greatly influence the future generation. We aim to work together to take Bangladesh from a developing country to a SMART Bangladesh by providing adequate support to the private higher education sector. We hope you will enjoy your learning and association with Uttara University. Thanks for visiting my page.
