he University of Development Alternative (UODA) started its journey with the noble mission of creating a new generation of skilled youths, self-reliant, forward looking, vibrant individuals, with indomitable energy and self-confidence. Our lofty mission also aims at giving our youths a strong moral grounding so that their lives may be balanced, sober, just and content.

In the university, we consistently strive to instill in our students the kind of education that leads to the creation of professional expertise, by providing the right kind of technical education on one hand, and developing a balanced human resource through teaching intellectual skill and moral values, on the other. We want them to be experts in their fields, and be ethical human beings at the same time. The courses and curricula we have designed in the university reflect these intentions. 

This idea was founded and initiated by the President of UODA, Professor Mujib Khan. A group of visionary educationist, industrialist, social workers & professionals led by him, started to bring about a qualitative change in the educational system of the country.

It was their belief that an 'alternative education' system needs to be developed in consideration of the country's needs, as well as building a platform towards meeting the challenges of global realities more effectively.
