International Islamic University Chittagong (IIUC) was established in 1995 by the trust of this university with a mission of developing this university as an ideal institution of higher learning and research in the private sector of Bangladesh. IUC Trust and its Syndicate are being run by academic scholars and leaders of international repute, consisting of scholars of both home and abroad. The vision of IIUC is to combine quality education with morality so that the graduates of this university grow up with skill-based modern knowledge and strong morality for humanness. In the higher education sector of Bangladesh, IIUC has become the forerunner of addressing the challenges of globalization by providing appropriate knowledge imbued with morality in order to bring peace, progress and tranquility in human societies across the globe.
With a view to providing dynamic leadership, as Vice-Chancellors, IIUC was run by renowned educationist Prof. Mohammad Ali, the former Vice-Chancellor of University of Chittagong and former member of University Grants Commission of Bangladesh in its first phase and Prof. Dr. A. K. M. Azharul Islam, a renowned scientist and scholar of international reputation & Professor of Physics - University of Rajshahi in its second phase. Their services have elevated IIUC to its present standard of excellence.
Over the past years of its establishment, development & expansion, it has cut an image of one of the best ranking private universities in Bangladesh. And this is because of the fact that IIUC has highest number of quality students numbering around 9000 including its Chittagong and Dhaka Campus with qualified faculties in all the departments having sufficient library, lab and internet facilities. Currently IIUC has more than one lac title books in its central library along with five thousand e-journals and each faculty has its seminar library with required books and journals. A good number of IIUC graduates have obtained higher degrees from foreign universities which is the testimony of its best quality education. Many graduates of this university are being employed within the country and outside and are holding important positions both in private and public sectors. A few graduates of IIUC are also recruited in the teaching and non-teaching positions of public universities. One of the unique features of IIUC is that it is providing separate education to male and female students. Moreover, IIUC has developed its Permanent Campus at Kumira, Sitakunda – Chittagong 22 km far off Chittagong City and lying beside the Dhaka-Chittagong highway in a hilly area with required modern facilities and in a beautiful landscape with thin forest bounties.
I expect that the students of IIUC shall try their best to take the fullest advantage of this university, by freely interacting with teachers and officials of IIUC which has already become their chosen institution of higher learning and research.
May Allah help us all.
