Islamic University is a public university in Bangladesh financially aided by the Organisation of the Islamic Conference. It was formed in 1985 in Kushtia under the Islamic University Act of 1980 to promote the Islamic system of education in the country. Islamic University started its academic activities on June 28, 1986. The main objective of the university is to provide for instruction in theology and other fields of Islamic studies and comparative jurisprudence and such other branches of learning at graduate and postgraduate levels and to make provisions for research, including post-doctorate research and training for advancement and dissemination of knowledge.
History
Islamic University, Kushtia was founded on November 22, 1979 at Shantidanga-Dulalpur (Kushtia-Jhenidah) by the late president Ziaur Rahman based on the recommendation of Islamic University Planning Committee headed by Professor Dr. M. A. Bari. The Islamic University Act was passed by National Assembly of Bangladesh on December 27, 1980. On January 1, 1981 the government of Bangladesh appointed Dr. A. N. M. Mamtajuddin Choudhury as the first vice-chancellor and the university became operational that year.
As construction of several important buildings began, a presidential decree was issued on May 15, 1982 to shift the university from Shantidanga-Dulalpur to Boardbazar, Gazipur on an area of 50acres. The construction of an academic building, two residential halls and other necessary infrastructures were completed. Initially two faculties (Faculty of Theology and Islamic Studies, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences) with four departments (Al-Quran, Dawah, Accounting, Management) were established and 300 students were enrolled. In 1987, two more departments (Sharia and Economics) were established. On December 28, 1988, while the infrastructure development and academic activities were in full swing, the university was again shifted to Shantidanga-Dulalpur (Kushtia-Jhenidah).
In 1991 five more departments — Bengali, English, Arabic, Islamic History, and Public Administration — were established.
Now there are 22 departments under five faculties—modern applied sciences, technological, and engineering subjects were included with the ordinary departments.
On 23 June 2009, an act of parliament assigned the president as chancellor, replacing the prime minister.
