The Islamic University of Technology (IUT) is a premier engineering institute situated at the outskirts of Dhaka City. Established in 1981, this institute first opened its freshly minted gates to students in 1988. Since then the University has enjoyed an ever growing stature, and now it stands as one of the very best in the country. Its campus is an architectural feat that blends both Islamic influences and modern inspirations. It is affectionately called “Red Heaven”, owing to the consistent reds that dye its buildings.
The Islamic University of Technology is one of Bangladesh’s only two international universities, run and funded by the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). IUT utilizes a rigorous academic curriculum that seeks to mold individuals who are prepared for both their specific fields and to take on the problems of the wider world. IUT currently has five departments: Computer Science and Engineering, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Mechanical and Chemical Engineering, Civil and Environmental Engineering, and Technical and Vocational Education.
IUT offers Bachelor of Science and Master’s degrees, as well as Higher Diplomas and doctoral degrees. The quality of education offered here has earned it a glowing reputation and a high standing in Bangladeshi higher education. Along with academics, IUT stresses involvement in extracurricular fields, and its many clubs have made great strides in their short histories - IUT’s debating and photographic societies have earned nationwide acclaim. IUT offers a substantial number of yearly conventions, including the ICT Fest, Meccelaration, Essonance, Cennovation, along with conventions hosted by its clubs such as Break the Circle, IUT InterVarsity Debate, and so on.
IUT is primarily a residential university, and its red campus, complimented by encircling greens, serves as the perfect home for its multi-cultural student body, comprised of both Bangladeshi students as well as a diverse group of internationals who hail from Muslim countries all over the world. Its halls of residence offer some of the best on-campus housing in the country, and the campus is replete with its very own mosque, playing fields, various recreation centers, two cafeterias and a wonderful lake. The vibrant student life here is one that needs to be experienced first-hand, and is one of IUT’s many strong points.
IUT has advanced enormously in its relatively young existence, and its constant drive for progress and development promises great things for the future. IUT remains steadfast in its mission to provide the best engineering education in the country.

The university was founded by the Government of Bangladesh according to a university act in 1986 to give special importance in science and technology education. It is the first specialized science & technology university of the country. After SUST, seven more science and technology universities have been established in Bangladesh.
SUST is traditionally known for research and education in the physical sciences and engineering. It is one of the most selective higher learning institutions, and received 40,881 undergraduate applicants for 2012-2013 session—only admitting 1,385, an acceptance rate of 3.39%.
Shahjalal University of Science and Technology was established in 1986. The campus is located in Kumargaon, approximately five kilometers away from the heart of Sylhet City Centre. The university started its academic programme with three departments: physics, chemistry and economics. The first convocation of SUST was held on 29 April 1998 and the second convocation held on 6 December 2007.
SUST is the first university in Bangladesh providing whole campus free Wi-Fi access for students & staffs. The university introduced an integrated honors course for the first time in Bangladesh and it introduced the semester system (American credit system) from the 1996-97 session. According to the masterplan for the university, within a few years Shahjalal University of Science and Technology will be one of the finest institutions of the region.
The university students invented and introduced the paperless 24/7 SMS Based Automated Registration of Admission Test procedure for the first time in Bangladesh. Interested students can complete the registration process through mobile phone messages. The contemporary government launched the system on 13 September 2009. For the invention, the University won an Ambillion Award in a competition of South Asian countries in 2010 and National Award for E-Content and ICT for Development Award 2010. Now, most of the public universities in Bangladesh have adopted this process of registration.
{:}{:bn}শাহজালাল বিজ্ঞান ও প্রযুক্তি বিশ্ববিদ্যালয় (শাবিপ্রবি) হল বাংলাদেশের সিলেটে অবস্থিত একটি সরকারি অলাভজনক গবেষণা নির্ভর বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়। বাংলাদেশে পিএইচডি ডিগ্রী দানকারী ৯ টি বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ের একটি হল এটি।
বিজ্ঞান ও প্রযুক্তির প্রতি গুরুত্ব প্রদানের অংশ হিসেবে বাংলাদেশ সরকার ১৯৮৬ সালে এই বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়টি প্রতিষ্ঠা করে। পদার্থ, রসায়ন ও অর্থনীতি বিভাগ নিয়ে যাত্রা শুরু করা এই বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ের প্রথম ও দ্বিতীয় সমাবর্তন যথাক্রমে ২৯ এপ্রিল ১৯৯৮ এবং ৬ ডিসেম্বর ২০০৭ তারিখে অনুষ্ঠিত হয়। বিজ্ঞান ও প্রযুক্তিতে বিশেষায়িত দেশের প্রথম বিশ্ববিদ্যালয় হল এটি। শাবিপ্রবির পর দেশে আরও সাতটি বিজ্ঞান ও প্রযুক্তি বিশ্ববিদ্যালয় প্রতিষ্ঠা করা হয়।
পদার্থ বিজ্ঞান ও প্রযুক্তির ওপর পড়াশোনা এবং গবেষণা করার সুযোগ প্রদানের কারনে শাবিপ্রবির রয়েছে আলাদা সুনাম। মেধার চুলচেরা বিশ্লেষণ এবং তীব্র প্রতিযোগিতার কারনে এই বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ে ভর্তি হওয়া খুবই কষ্টসাধ্য। ২০১২-১৩ শিক্ষা বছরে এই বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ে ভর্তি হতে ইচ্ছুক মোট ৪০,৮৮১ জন দরখাস্তকারীর মধ্যে ১৩৮৫ জন ভর্তির সুযোগ লাভ করে।
বাংলাদেশের প্রথম বিশ্ববিদ্যালয় হিসেবে শাবিপ্রবি ছাত্র, কর্মচারীদের জন্য পুরো ক্যাম্পাসে ওয়াইফাই প্রযুক্তি চালু করে। এছাড়াও দেশে প্রথমবারের মত এই বিশ্ববিদ্যালয় সমষ্টিগত অনার্স কোর্স চালু করে এবং ১৯৯৬-৭ শিক্ষাবছর থেকে সেমিস্টার পদ্ধতিতে পাঠদান শুরু করে। বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ের মহা পরিকল্পনা অনুযায়ী অচিরেই এই বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়টি অত্র অঞ্চলের সেরা বিদ্যাপীঠে পরিনত হবে।
এই বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ের শিক্ষার্থীরা ভর্তি পরীক্ষার সময় মোবাইল ফোনে এসএমএসের মাধ্যমে স্বয়ংক্রিয়ভাবে নিবন্ধনের প্রক্রিয়া উদ্ভাবন করে। ২০০৯ সালের ১৩ সেপ্টেম্বর তৎকালীন সরকার এই প্রক্রিয়াটি চালু করেন। বর্তমানে বেশীর ভাগ সরকারি বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়তেই এই স্বয়ংক্রিয় প্রক্রিয়ায় নিবন্ধন করা হয়ে থাকে। এই উদ্ভাবনের স্বীকৃতিস্বরূপ শাবিপ্রবি ২০১০ সালে দেশে বিদেশে বিভিন্ন পুরস্কার অর্জন করেছে।{:}
