United International University
United International University (Bengali: ইউনাইটেড ইন্টারন্যাশনাল ইউনিভার্সিটি, also known as UIU) is a private research university in Dhaka, Bangladesh.
The government of Bangladesh approved the establishment of United International University in 2003. United International University was established with the generous support and patronage of the United Group.
In 2024, according to the QS World University Rankings, United International University (UIU) is ranked in 1201-1400 globally, making it the 3rd highest-ranking private university in Bangladesh, alongside Daffodil International University (DIU) and East West University (EWU).
On 26 April 2025, United International University Vice Chancellor Prof Abul Kashem Mia and 11 departmental heads resigned amid ongoing student protests at the university’s Bhatara Madani Avenue campus. The demonstrations were sparked by grievances over exam policies, including reduced test durations, unchanged improvement fees, and handling a student’s request for a make-up exam following a family bereavement. While the students cited administrative insensitivity and financial burdens, the university officials stated they resigned in protest against what they called “undue” and “unjust” demands. The Board of Trustees of United International University formed an independent fact-finding committee to investigate the incidents. Chaired by Professor Md Mujibur Rahman, the committee is expected to submit a report within seven working days, based on a thorough and impartial review of evidence and testimonies.
The permanent campus is on a 25-bigha (8.25 acre) plot of land, located at the 'United City' at Satarkul, Badda (1.5 km east of Embassy of the United States, Dhaka), adjacent to Madani Avenue.
The academic units of UIU are four schools and several institutes, which offer a wide range of undergraduate, graduate and certificate programs.
The School of Business and Economics (SoBE) of UIU is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP).
UIU Central library has a collection of 40,293 items of information materials. Among the materials, 86,200 and 12,458 are books and bound periodicals respectively. Besides, 141 titles are in the current subscription list of journals. Every year, 500 volumes are added to the main reading room of the central library.[citation needed]
