Chhatak Government College, also known as Chhatak Govt. Degree College, is a public institution located in Chhatak Upazila of Sunamganj District. It was established in 1972, shortly after Bangladesh's independence, to meet the local demand for higher education. Before its creation, students from Chhatak had to travel long distances for college-level studies, which wasn’t possible for many families. The college became a symbol of hope, built with community support and the vision of making education accessible for all. Over time, it has become a respected institution under the National University of Bangladesh. Thousands of students have studied here and contributed to society. It continues to serve as a center for learning, growth, and community engagement in the region.

Chhatak Government College has already shaped the lives of thousands of students, many of whom are now teachers, officers, and professionals. Student life includes cultural events, sports, environmental activities, and leadership programs like Scouts and NCC. The college still faces challenges like the need for more classrooms, modern labs, and student hostels. But plans are in place to expand Honours courses, add Master's preliminary programs, and improve digital learning tools. The college dreams of becoming a model rural institution in Bangladesh. Its journey from a small community effort to a respected government college is a true success story. As it moves forward, it remains committed to education, opportunity, and the future of Chhatak's youth.
