North South University (NSU), Bangladesh’s premier private university, officially inaugurated the construction of its much-anticipated new campus in Pubachal, located in the Rupganj Upazila of Narayanganj district.
Spread across over 100 acres of land, this transformative development marks a major milestone in NSU’s expansion, aiming to enhance both academic excellence and modern infrastructure. The event commenced with a special Dua and Munajat, followed by the ceremonial launch of the boundary wall construction.
The upcoming Pubachal campus is designed to accommodate up to 50,000 students, offering residential facilities for nearly 25,000. The master plan includes cutting-edge academic buildings, contemporary residential halls, expansive sports grounds, eco-friendly green spaces, modern cafeterias, well-equipped libraries, and dedicated research centers — all reflecting NSU’s vision of building a world-class educational institution in Bangladesh.
Speaking at the inauguration, NSU vice chancellor Abdul Hannan Chowdhury expressed heartfelt excitement: “This is a moment of great pride for us. Despite many challenges, we are now turning our long-standing vision into reality.”
He also paid homage to the late founding member and former chairman of the NSU Board of Trustees, emphasizing the university’s commitment to fulfilling their dreams through this groundbreaking project.
The event was moderated by NSU project director Engineer Mushtaq Habib, who noted, “We have envisioned this new campus since 2016. Today marks the beginning of a new chapter as we work toward offering a truly world-class academic environment for our students.”
The ceremony saw the presence of key university stakeholders, including members of NSU board of trust, treasurer and acting pro vice chancellor Abdur Rob Khan, registrar Ahmed Tazmeen, academic deans, faculty members, students and administrative staff.
