The present Government Shaheed Suhrawardy College was established on 11 November 1949. At that time the name of this college was Quaid-E-Azam College. The Quaid-E-Azam College started its journey in a moisture building situated on the land of Bhawal Raja Estate at Nalgola (5/1, Zumman Bepari Lane). Immediate repair of the college was completed by the help of five thousand taka of the then District Magistrate. Later on, after buying the present land of 36-37, Laxsmibazar the college was shifted to it. The building of Nalgola was then turned into a hostel. The famous professor Mr. Syed Zahir Ahsan of Geography Department engaged in Bihar Provincial Service took the charge of The Principal as the first Principal of the college in 1950. At the beginning, the approval of teaching was confined to the courses of I.A., I. Com., and B. Com. It was governmentally enlisted as college in 1951-1952 session with total 300 students and 10 teachers. The gradual improvement of the college began just after the joining of the renowned Professor Mr. A. M. A. R. Fatemi as Principal on 15 April 1954. Science course was started at Intermediate level in 1955. The ceremonial inauguration of science course was declared by the then Governor of East Pakistan Mr. Sher-E-Bangla A. K. Fazlul Haque. B.A. (Pass) course was started in 1956. The starting of science course at graduate class in 1958 was epoch-making. Later on, coming to visit the college Governor Zakir Hussain inaugurated the course at graduate level formally. At that time there was no science course at graduate level in any college in Dhaka except in this college. And the successful person of all these activities was the Principal Mr. Fatemi. Soon this college became familiar as an ideal educational institution of the province. When the college authority proposed the ex-governor of the then East Pakistan to be the main patron, he accepted the proposal whole heartedly.

During the period of The Principal Mr. Fatemi (from 15-04-1954 to 15-12-1971) the number of students and teachers raised to 3400 and 60 respectively. After independence of Bangladesh the name of the college was changed to Shaheed Suhrawardy College in 1972, according to the name of the veteran politician known as the fancy child of democracy Mr. Hussain Shaheed Suhrawardy. The college was enlisted as governmental college on 1 November in 1984. So, the college was renamed as Government Shaheed Suhrawardy College. At present the science, arts and commerce section at Higher Secondary, graduate and Honours level in this college are running. Honours course was started from 2004-2005 academic session in this college. At present teaching is going on at Honours level in 16 departments.
