Uttara Town College in Uttara, Dhaka

An outstanding private institution with a challenging outlook of the 21st century Uttara Town College had been started in October 1998 as a breakthrough in the conventional pattern of teaching with a mission of dissemination of modern, dynamic and utility-based education at Uttara, a thriving modern satellite town of Dhaka Metropolis. The idea of the establishment of such an institute has emerged not from a single brain, rather it is the outcome of long-nourished thoughts of some prominent educationists, academicians, and Govt. high officials of the country. To materialize the dream, they constitute Uttara Academic Foundation (UAF), a non-political, non-profitable, and charitable organization. Now, UAF with a strong Governing Body governs the college. Initially, the college was started with the HSC courses in Science, Humanities, and Business Studies with modern Lab Facilities for science and Computer learning. In a short span of time, BA, BSS, BBS Pass and Honors courses have been introduced with the vision of converting it into a full-fledged modern university. Now, the college is running four-year Honors Courses in nine subjects- Mathematics, English, Political Science, Social Work, Economics, Accounting, Management, Marketing, and Finance & Banking. To meet the ever-increasing demands of the age, in the session 2009-'10 Professional BBA Honors Course has been started here which is a milestone and a unique opportunity for Uttara Model Town and its surrounding areas. Moreover, Professional Honors courses in Computer Science & Engineering (CSE), Masters Courses in six subjects, and B.Sc Pass Course are going to be introduced here very soon.
