Saifuddin Ahmed, an associate professor in the Department of Peace and Conflict Studies at Dhaka University, has been appointed as the new proctor of the university.
The university`s registrar office issued a notification confirming the appointment on Wednesday.
Following the resignation of the proctorial team on August 8, after the fall of the Hasina government, the positions of proctor and assistant proctors had remained unfilled.
Saifuddin Ahmed has had a long career in academia, having previously taught at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology (SUST), North-South University (NSU), and the University Of Asia Pacific (UAP) before joining Dhaka University.
He also served as an assistant proctor at SUST. His academic contributions include four books and at least 17 journal articles, highlighting his scholarly and administrative capabilities.
Prof Saifuddin emphasised the importance of cooperation among all stakeholders to foster a student-friendly campus.
"We are committed to creating a student-friendly university environment and look forward to the support of all university stakeholders. Together, we will work towards this goal," he said.
