Bangladesh University of Professionals (BUP) in Pallabi, Dhaka

The establishment of a university for the armed forces educational and training institutes was a long-felt need. National security, war strategy, medicine, engineering, and technology related to higher studies are in high demand at present. To keep pace and to be at par with the fast developing world, national higher studies, research enabling modern knowledge, and creating scope for education and studies are the obligations to be fulfilled. In order to expand and integrate the existing educational and training institutes of the armed forces, they needed to be brought under a single umbrella or authority. Thereby, the establishment of "Bangladesh University of Professionals," (BUP) took place in that process and came into being as the 31st public university of Bangladesh on 05 June 2008. BUP is a unique public university run by the armed forces upholding the motto "EXCELLENCE THROUGH KNOWLEDGE". The youngest university is confident in furthering its knowledge in the field of national security, technology, and modern science to achieve the desired human resources development of the country.
