Naogaon University

About

Naogaon University is a public university of Bangladesh, established in 2023 as the country’s 54th public university, located in Naogaon—one of the major districts of northern Bangladesh. With the aim of fulfilling the long-standing aspirations of the conscious people of Naogaon, the university was founded to keep pace with and attain parity with the rapidly advancing global higher education landscape, and to create and expand opportunities for higher education and research at the national level, particularly in the practice of modern knowledge across diverse fields. In 2023, the Government Gazette was published under the title “Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman University, Naogaon Act–2023”, which was later amended and republished as the “Naogaon University, Naogaon Act–2023”. Based on this legal framework, Naogaon University was formally established. The inception of the university has opened a new horizon for higher education in the region and fulfilled the long-cherished dream of a vast population of education-seeking people.
