Rajshahi Science & Technology University or RSTU (Bengali: রাজশাহী বিজ্ঞান ও প্রযুক্তি বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়) is a private university in Natore, Bangladesh. It was established in 2013.[1]

In November 2016, the University Grants Commission (UGC) criticised the university for operating since inception, in contravention of the law, without an acceptable vice chancellor, pro vice chancellor, or treasurer. The UGC cautioned parents and guardians to be careful in their choice of university because students’ certificates would not be valid unless they were signed by a vice chancellor duly appointed by the President.[2][3]
