Provenance & notes
First private university in Sylhet, founded 3 May 2003 by Dr Toufique Rahman Chowdhury; campus at Bateshwar, Sylhet. VC Mohammad Jahirul Hoque (PhD SOAS) appointed by the President 2022-11-16, joined 2022-12-01. Wikipedia student-count figures (e.g. 48,000) are implausible and uncorroborated, so student/faculty counts set null.
