UCTCT is a non-political and non-profit oriented voluntary organization, registered in December 2014, under the Societies Act XXI of 1860 with the government of Bangladesh.
[6] Seeing the absence of institutions of higher learning based on technology and with innovative vision, UCTCT responded to the need for a university under private initiative in the public sector.
The Trust discussed the concept of a private research based technological university in this region with a group of intellectuals, thinkers, and educationists, from home and abroad.
Dedicated and creative personalities came forward to materialize the dream of such an institution by putting their ideas, energies and fulfilling other requirements.
The academic session at University of Creative Technology Chittagong[10] comprises two semesters.
