Nazipur Government College is a public college in Patnitala Upazila, Bangladesh. It is an honors level college,[3] affiliated to National University.[2]
History[edit]
Nazipur Mahaviddalaya was established in 1973. The founding principal was Md. Moez Uddin. Initially it operated out of Nazipur High School. Land was donated to the college, a building was constructed, and in 1977 the college moved to its present location on the east side of the Nazipur-Dhamoirhat road in Patnitala. The college was nationalized in 1985, becoming Nazipur Government College. It is affiliated to National University.[2]
Honors courses in Islamic history and culture began in 2007, but honors courses in other subjects could not be started because of severe and prolonged teacher shortages.[1] The percentage of vacant teaching posts was 48%, 36%, and 21% respectively in the years from 2016 to 2018. Some positions had been unfilled for nearly a decade. There were no teachers in three departments, only one teacher in each of nine departments, and two teachers in the other departments.[1][4][5]
