 1.1 The University
Rajshahi University of Engineering & Technology is the second
oldest University for the study of Engineering in Bangladesh. In
order to create facilities for undergraduate and postgraduate studies
and research, the Engineering College, Rajshahi established in
1964 was converted to BIT, Rajshahi in the year 1986 and the BIT,
Rajshahi was upgraded to Rajshahi University of Engineering &
Technology (RUET) in 2003. With a view to meeting the
increasing demand for engineers in the country and to expand the
facilities for advancement of engineering education, Engineering
college, Rajshahi was started functioning as a Faculty of
Engineering under the University of Rajshahi offering four years
