Darul Ihsan University (Script error: The function "langx" does not exist.) or DIU was a private university in Dhaka, Bangladesh. It was founded by Syed Ali Ashraf in 1989. The government of Bangladesh accredited it as a private university in 1993.[1] The Education Ministry shut down the university on 26 July 2016 for illegally operating numerous branch campuses and for selling higher degree certificates.[2][3][4]
