A journey of unity, growth and service since 2008
Begum Rokeya University, Rangpur (BRUR) was established in 2008 as one of the premier public universities of Bangladesh. Named after the legendary feminist writer and social reformer Begum Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain, the university has since produced thousands of accomplished graduates who are now serving the nation and the world. The BRUR Alumni Association (BRURAA) was formed to bring these graduates together under a single, organized platform.
Begum Rokeya University, Rangpur was officially inaugurated as a public university in Rangpur, Bangladesh, beginning its academic journey with a handful of departments.
The first batch of students completed their undergraduate programs, marking the birth of the university's alumni community. These pioneers laid the foundation for what would become BRURAA.
As the number of BRUR graduates grew significantly, formal discussions began among alumni across different batches and departments to establish an organized alumni association.
A dedicated committee drafted the BRURAA constitution — outlining the governance structure, membership criteria, objectives, and code of conduct for the association.
The BRURAA constitution was formally adopted at a general meeting of alumni representatives, and the association was officially registered and recognized.
The first formal membership enrollment drive was launched online and physically, inviting all BRUR graduates to officially join the association.
The first-ever democratic election for the BRURAA Executive Committee was held, with hundreds of members casting votes to elect their leaders for the first time.
Established under the Begum Rokeya University, Rangpur Act, 2008, BRUR is located in Rangpur, Bangladesh. The university offers programs in Science, Social Science, Arts, Business Studies, Engineering and more. It stands as a symbol of progressive education and the spirit of Begum Rokeya's dream for an educated, empowered Bangladesh.
