Shahjalal University of Science and Technology - SUST (reviews)

Shahjalal University of Science and Technology (SUST) is one of the most reputed public universities in Bangladesh. The campus is located in Sylhet and offers a calm and peaceful environment that is ideal for both academic and personal growth.

The university follows a well-structured academic curriculum, and many departments maintain a high standard of teaching and research. Notably, SUST is recognized for its minimal session jams, ensuring students complete their degrees on time. The Computer Science and Engineering department, in particular, is highly prestigious, known for producing skilled graduates who are now prominently placed in top-tier global tech companies and research institutions worldwide.

One of the best aspects of SUST is its vibrant campus life. Students actively participate in programming contests, cultural events, and over 30 active clubs ranging from science and robotics to music and theatre. These activities help develop essential technical and soft skills. SUST has also pioneered several notable innovations in Bangladesh, such as Pipilika, the first Bangla search engine, and significant advancements in Natural Language Processing (NLP), robotics, and software development.

Although the university has hall facilities for both male and female students, a large number of male students live outside the campus. The university authority should take steps to improve and expand hall facilities and encourage more students to stay on campus.

Overall, SUST provides an exceptional environment for anyone looking to excel in research, technology, and personal development.

It is one of the most prestigious science and technology universities in South Asia and the first university to adopt American credit system. The university is well known for its pioneering research in computer science and engineering.

I had a desire since childhood to be an engineer. When I completed my college life I choose two universities. They are BUET and Shahjalal University of Science and Technology. I did my bachelor’s degree from Shahjalal University of Science and Technology in Computer Science and Engineering. Shahjalal University of Science and Technology is famous for its CSE department. Pipilika is the first search engine website in Bangladesh and is developed by some students of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering. I feel proud to be a student of SUST. There is an alluring natural environment on this campus.

A beautiful campus with plenty of green space. In the worlds of industry, research, and academia, it is a respected institution. I had a great time there. It’s a thriving, stimulating community with excellent facilities set in a beautiful parkland setting. The library renovation has had a significant influence on my studies, but it will be fantastic once it is completed. My time there moulded me into a successful person and professional, and I’m still in touch with many of the people I met there.
