The Institutional Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) has been established by Eastern University in July of 2015. The Cell got a boost with a grant from the HEQEP program of the University Grants Commission. The authorities of Eastern University have expressed total commitment to the project which has the ultimate goal of developing a quality culture within the University. Articulation of this goal is quite consistent with the prevalent policy of Eastern University stating that when it comes to quality in teaching, we will make no compromise.

Quality Assurance is not just about teaching, rather it is about a culture within the university that strives to improve quality at all aspects, at all levels, of the university programs, processes, and objectives. We see this as a continuous process of improving quality with no finish line.

At this point, IQAC of Eastern University is focused on self-assessment of the Faculty of Business Administration and the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. The Faculty of Laws and Faculty of Engineering will soon undertake self-assessment. In the mean time, IQAC of Eastern University has invited several international scholars and organized several seminars and workshops to train the faculty members on developing effective, student friendly, mission consistent course descriptions, on conducting interactive classes, teaching through cases, etc. Further, several seminars were dedicated toward developing research skills of the faculty members.

We have developed a complete year-long program of seminars and workshops and we invite you to visit our website frequently to get the latest updates. Drop by at the IQAC office at Eastern University (Room no.-602, Ashulia Model Town, Khagan, Birulia, Savar, Dhaka,Bangladesh) if you have any questions. Hope to see you there.

Here at IQAC under the umbrella of Higher Education Quality Enhancement Project (HEQEP) of University Grant Commission (UGU), we thrive to create a quality environment in every aspect of the University. As quality has no boundaries, it’s an ongoing process and when we will achieve a satisfactory level of outcome; this will be our prime objective to embrace that position. We are trying to push the envelope to bring our University in International arena of University ranking. Under the guideline of HEQEP we are now performing Self-assessment in program level.
