State University of Bangladesh (SUB) was established in 2002 under the Private University Act 1992, as amended in 1998. As an academic institution of higher education and learning, SUB had started its journey initially with a modest offering of some untested areas of health science.  This is how the term ‘trendsetter’ has become SUB’s qualifying appellation, and since then the term has characterized SUB’s main ambience and ethos. As the university kept growing, it started to expand its academic program manifold, and as of now there are 10 academic departments under 3 faculties and two more departments, Department of Data Science and Department of Music and Theatre Performance, have been proposed for approval to the University Grants Commission (UGC) of Bangladesh.
