Sylhet Medical University is a public medical university situated in Sylhet, Bangladesh.[2][3]It has been established for the supervisors of all medical colleges and nursing colleges of Sylhet division.
History
[edit]Many medical colleges have been established in the country for commercial reasons. Many closed medical colleges have been started due to court order.[citation needed] According to the Prime Minister's order to strictly monitor whether medical standards are being properly maintained in medical colleges, a medical university will be set up in each division. According to the order, Chittagong and Rajshahi Medical University have already been established. Sylhet Medical University is the fourth medical university of the directive.[4][5]
After the fall of the Sheikh Hasina led Awami League government, on 13 April 2025, the interim government of Bangladesh issued an ordinance naming the university from Bangamata Sheikh Fazilatunessa Mujib Medical University, Sylhet to Sylhet Medical University.[6][7][8]
