   What you can study

   CUET focuses on engineering, technology, architecture, and planning. It has five faculties and seventeen academic departments, so it is aimed at students looking for a technical university rather than a broad general university. The programme catalogue is still being compiled.

   Getting in

   CUET is a public university, so international applicants should expect to apply through the university’s admissions process and check the official website for entry requirements, document lists, deadlines, and any country-specific instructions. The university does not publish separate international-admissions details here, so confirm the current process with the admissions office.

   How it compares

   Among 83 universities in Bangladesh, CUET stands out as a public institution with a narrow technical focus rather than a broad multi-discipline profile. That makes it a better fit for applicants who already know they want engineering, technology, architecture, or planning, and who want a state-funded university setting.
