Bangladeshi universities are affiliated with the University Grants Commission, a commission created according to the Presidential Order (P.O.

Two of these are focused on Islamic studies, four on health science, six on agricultural science, six on engineering, one on textile engineering, one on Veterinary medicine, one on Aeronautical science, one on ocean science and one on women's studies.[2]
