Prof Faez new IU VC


Prof Faez Mohammad Serazul Hoque has been appointed as the vice-chancellor (VC) of Islamic University (IU) yesterday.

Prime Minister Khaleda Zia, also the chancellor of the university, confirmed the appointment.

Prof Faez was a professor at the Department of English at Islamic University. He was also the president of IU Teachers' Association (IUTA).

He is the 9th VC of the university. He took over yesterday.

Islamic University was experiencing a 20-day deadlock for appointing a new VC since July 19, when the IUTA in a general meeting launched a non-cooperation programme suspending all classes and examinations.
