How the Ulkaa Edu Rank works

Overview

Atish Dipankar University of Science and Technology (ADUST) is a private university in Uttara, Dhaka, established in 2004. Its faculties cover arts and social science, business, science and technology, and public health. The Ulkaa Edu Rank 2027 places Atish Dipankar University of Science and Technology in the 51-75 band. The position is computed from the published methodology. UGC figures record 2,309 students (2023) and 175 teachers, 44 of them with a PhD (2023).

The Ulkaa Edu Rank draws on indicators such as first-year intake, research output and citations per work, the share of teachers with a PhD, students per teacher and recognition in QS and THE tables. Each indicator has a published weight and a stated data year, so a band is a summary of public data and not a verdict on any one programme.

ADUST was established on 18 August 2004. Its first vice-chancellor, Anwara Begum, is described on Wikipedia as the first woman vice-chancellor in Bangladesh. The permanent campus opened in 2017, and the university received its permanent campus certificate in September 2021.
