Netrokona University

Netrokona University is a public university in Netrokona, in the Mymensingh division, established on 11 February 2018. It was formerly called Sheikh Hasina University and was renamed in February 2025, according to Wikipedia. The Ulkaa Edu Rank 2027 places it in the 51-75 band overall and in the 31-40 band among public universities. The position is computed from the published methodology.

UGC figures record 542 students and 37 teachers in 2023, of whom 10 held a PhD, about 27 per cent. New admissions that year were 126. Ulkaa's score draws on roughly 86 per cent of its indicators, which makes this one of the better-covered young universities in the table. In the subject tables the university is in the 31-40 band for business and for computer science, and in the 41-50 band for engineering.

Ulkaa holds no QS or THE entry for Netrokona University.

Wikipedia records that the university was established on 11 February 2018 and that it carried the name Sheikh Hasina University until February 2025, when it became Netrokona University. The pages that call it by the older name are out of date.

UGC counts for the years Ulkaa has show a small and shifting enrolment. The 2021 figure is 196 students and 196 new admissions, the 2022 figure is 114 for both, and in 2023 the university counts 542 students and 126 new admissions. Wikipedia reports 1,150 students and 56 teachers for August 2026, which shows how quickly a university of this age can change.

Netrokona University admits students at the undergraduate level for the departments listed on its official website. As a public university it publishes a circular each session. UGC data records 126 new admissions in 2023. Entry requirements, test dates, seat numbers and deadlines change every session, so confirm them with the admissions office or the current notice before you apply. Applicants generally need an HSC or equivalent result.

Before you apply, compare the programme you want with the current UGC information, ask the department about class schedules and laboratory access, and visit if you can. Tuition and other costs are not covered on this page, so ask the admissions office for the current schedule.

Wikipedia describes four faculties with nine departments. The Faculty of Arts has Bangla, English, and History and Archaeology. The Faculty of Social Science has Economics, International Relations and Development Studies. The Faculty of Engineering and Technology has Computer Science and Engineering and Electrical and Electronic Engineering. The Faculty of Business Administration has Accounting and Information System.

Ulkaa's programme records for 2027 list ten bachelor-level departments, adding a Department of General Education to that set. The two sources count departments differently, so check the current list with the university. Ulkaa holds no accreditation data for these programmes.

OpenAlex records 83 works in the five years to 2025 and 449 citations, or about 5.4 citations per work. In 2025 it lists 32 works, of which 13 are tagged to business, 10 to computer science and 8 to engineering. About 19 per cent of its 2025 works have an international co-author. For a university of this size these are modest but real counts, and they feed the research indicators in the Ulkaa score.

Wikipedia gives the campus size as 500 acres in a suburban setting in Netrokona district. The languages of instruction are Bangla and English. This page has no verified detail on halls, laboratories or student clubs, so it makes no claims about them. If you are weighing the university, ask about hostel places, transport to the town and laboratory access in the engineering departments.
