Message from Head of the Department
On behalf of my admired colleagues and dear students, let me extend a warm welcome from the Department of Law, Rajshahi Science and Technology University (RSTU), Natore. We appreciate that you have taken the time to know more about us. The Department of Law is fairly new, but it has a very potent and dynamic foundation. We provide extra ordinary curriculum for our students. Our students are passionate and academically curious, all of our faculty members are legal experts who are dedicated to research and teaching excellence, and we are beginning to forge relationships with some of the most influential lawyers and institutions in Bangladesh. The main goal of the Department of Law is to provide a Common Law and Outcome based legal education to the students with a view to producing the best lawyers, judges, academics, government services and policymakers who would be able to attain the leading positions in their respective sectors at home and abroad and serve the humanity. To us, this means that our students would not just be well versed in the laws of Bangladesh, but also become critical thinkers who would pioneer the development and implementation of innovative, efficient, and just initiatives nationally and internationally. As we grow, we hope to continue to attract the best and brightest students, build an unparalleled faculty, and partner with brilliant legal scholars and practitioners in Bangladesh and around the world.
