A public university is a university that is predominantly funded by public means through a national or subnational government, as opposed to private universities. Whether a national university is considered public varies from one country (or region) to another, largely depending on the specific education landscape. In some parts of the world (such as China), public universities usually enjoy higher reputation domestically and they are often among the most influential research institutions in the world. Many of the prominent public universities are ranked among the best in the world by THES - QS World University Rankings and the Academic Ranking of World Universities.

There are 35 public universities in Bangladesh. The University Grant Commission is the governing body for all the public universities in Bangladesh. The universities does not deal directly with the government, but with the University Grants Commission, which in turn deals with the government.

Recently many private universities are established under the Private University Act of 1992.
