Possible Changes in Bangladesh Higher Education Leadership
Sources at the Ministry of Education said discussions have already taken place about appointing a new chairman at the UGC.
Professor S M A Faiz is widely known as a respected educationist in Bangladesh. He previously served in several important academic and administrative positions and has long been associated with the country’s higher education sector.
However, officials said age-related limitations have reduced his ability to actively supervise universities across the country.

Experts believe the UGC chairman SMA Faiz resignation could trigger broader reforms in the higher education administration. The government is expected to make new appointments and strengthen oversight mechanisms to improve university governance in Bangladesh.
