Rangamati Science and Technology University is a public university located in Rangamati, Bangladesh, commonly known as RMSTU. It was established in 2014.
The university has faced vocal opposition from local groups such as Parbatya Chattagram Jana Samhati Samiti (PCJSS) during its establishment. This is due to the fact that the students, staff, and faculty come predominantly from outside the Chittagong Hill Tracts. Opponents to the school believe that the settlement of these people in Rangamati would change the character of the region. The first batch of 75 students began classes in November 2015, at a temporary campus set up at Tabalchharhi Shah High School.
