The National University of Bangladesh was established to impart post-graduate and graduate level education to the students of Bangladesh through its beneficiary colleges and institutions by an Act of Parliament.
It is considered as world’s fifth largest university according to enrollment for its number of affiliated colleges, the number registered students and number of expanding courses and subjects.
The headquarter of the National University of Bangladesh is situated at Gazipur, Dhaka. Ever since the National University of Bangladesh has been playing the important role in educating students at the same time providing them with opportunities for higher studies.
Its main target was to make it welcoming for students from rural and semi-rural background seeking higher study at an affordable means. It is almost impossible to run the curriculum of the University efficiently concerning its 2000 affiliated institutions and colleges from a single Headquarters while following a simple and traditional method as the education of Bangladesh depends on it much.
The Though National University of Bangladesh is expanded all over Bangladesh but students rush towards the colleges in Capital, Dhaka.

It is sad but true that many of the teachers who are teaching at the National University of Bangladesh do not have higher training. There is a lack of good and well-explained able teacher too!
The training programs are designed to supplement the awareness of the college teachers enhancing their skill and expose them to higher ideas. Reputed educationists of the country are connected with the academic programs which are provided on campus. The colleges under National University provide courses leading to Pass, Honors and of course Masters Degrees.
