Stamford University Bangladesh (Bengali: স্টামফোর্ড ইউনিভার্সিটি বাংলাদেশ) is a private university in Dhaka, Bangladesh. It was established in 2002 under the Private University Act. Before starting as a university, its predecessor institution was known as a Stamford College Group established in 1994, later it was upgraded to a university in 2002 and appeared as Stamford University Bangladesh. Stamford University is the first ISO certified university in Bangladesh. Stamford University Bangladesh is fully approved by University Grants Commission. The university was recently asked by the commission along with 3 other private universities to stop enrolling new students for failing to fulfill UGC's condition to shift to a permanent campus.
