History
Rajshahi College was established in 1873 for the development of the education of Rajshahi region during the British era. At that time the post graduate class was introduced with the law department at Rajshahi College. But soon after these activities are closed, these activities are closed. At that time the need to establish a new university was felt in Rajshahi. After the partition of 1947, the Government of Pakistan started the process of affiliating all the colleges of Dhaka University. According to the recommendations of the Sadler Commission at Rajshahi, the movement for the establishment of the university started.

For some time since the Language Movement, the movement of establishment of the University in Rajshahi has started. On 15 November 1950, a 64-member committee was formed with the prominent personalities of Rajshahi. The first public meeting was held to set up university and medical colleges in Rajshahi on February 10, 1952 in Bhuban Mohan Park in Rajshahi City. The first claim was made in Rajshahi College. On February 6, 1952, students of all educational institutions of the city gathered at the Rajshahi College premises and demanded to pass the Rajshahi University Ordinance.Later on February 13th Bhaban Mohan Parke was held in the chairmanship of Alhaj Abdul Hamid MLA and another public meeting. Idris Ahmed MLA, Prabhas Chandra Lahiri, Khorshed Alam, Ansar Ali, Abdul Jabbar and others spoke on the occasion. The demand for the establishment of the University of Rajshahi has become increasingly intense. At one stage 15 student leaders imprisoned while demanding the establishment of the university. Later, a delegation sent a letter to the students on behalf of the student. Among the members of the delegation, the name of late Abul Kalam Chowdhury and Abdur Rahman is noteworthy. Thus, by the pressure of Andalon one after another, the local legislature emphasized the establishment of a university in Rajshahi. The movement was united by the famous lawmaker Mother Bakhsh, a member of the East Bengal Legislative Assembly.

On February 6, 1953, in a public meeting in Bhuban Mohan Park, he warned the Mother Bakhsh government and said that if the university is not established in Rajshahi, we will be forced to demand North Bengal a separate province. In response to this speech, Mother Bakhsh said that the government will take good care of the people and bring together the government. Finally, on 31 March 1953, the provincial legislature passed the establishment law of Rajshahi University. With the new Vice Chancellor Professor Atrat Hossain Zuberi, Madarbakhsh prepared a plan for the University of Rajshahi. The 64-member University Implementation Committee was constituted by the two joint secretaries. It was sponsored by the then Divisional Commissioner MA Khurshid. In the same year, on 6 July, Professor Atrat Hossain Zubari was appointed as Vice-Chancellor, and the university officially started its journey. At the beginning, the university's education program began with 161 students. [1] The first class started in Rajshahi College. The Vice-Chancellor and Vice-Chancellor's office were established on the floor below the historic silk kuthi or blue clay known as Barakuthi on the banks of the Padma. Medical centers and libraries were organized in the Bholanath Vishweshwar Hindu Academy near Barkuthi. The University's examination control department was established in the house of Landlord Kunjohan Mohitra. The college inspector's office was established at the mother's house in Barakuthi para. Professor Abdul Karim was appointed the first registrar of the university and was appointed Osman Gani and the first test controller. Houses built at different places in the city have been built in the hostel. Fuller hostel adjacent to Rajshahi College was transformed as a university hostel. Student residence was established at the Lalkuthi Bhaban and another rented building in Barakuthi area.

Building and construction of roads in the current campus started in 1958. [3] Education activities of Rajshahi University were shifted to Motihari's own campus and by 1964 all the offices and divisions of the university were shifted here. This campus was developed by Australian architect. Swanni Thomas's architectural plan.
