Patuakhali Science and Technology University (PSTU) ({{lang-bn|পটুয়াখালী বিজ্ঞান ও প্রযুক্তি বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়}}) is a government-financed public university in Patuakhali, Bangladesh. PSTU has given affiliation to the Barisal Government Veterinary College as its constituent faculty.[1] This is the only science and technology university and first public university in Barisal division.

History

PSTU formally started functioning after promulgation of government gazette notification on 8 July 2000 with the campus of former Patuakhali Agricultural College as its nucleus. The university started with the Faculty of Agriculture offering four-year BSc Ag. (Hons.) degrees.

The Patuakhali Science and Technology University was developed at the private initiative of the local people through the establishment of a higher secondary institute in 1972 as a private college. It was then turned to Patuakhali Agricultural College under the affiliation of Bangladesh Agricultural University (BAU), Mymensingh in 1979 with the objective of producing agricultural graduates offering the BSc.Ag. (Hons.) degree.

The college was nationalised on 1 February 1985 and was placed under the administrative control of the Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI), Ministry of Agricultural together with BAU affiliation.

The government of Bangladesh launched a project to establish a science and technology university where none existed. The project advocated the transformation of Patuakhali Agricultural College into the full-fledged Patuakhali Science and Technology University that came into being through a Parliamentary Act passed on 12 July 2001.

Administration

Professor Dr. Md. Harun-Or-Rashid joined PSTU as its 8th vice-chancellor on 5 January 2017. Before joining as vice chancellor, he was serving the Department of Agronomy of the Patuakhali Science and Technology University as professor and also as the Director of Planning Division of the same university.
