The university delivers undergraduate (Bachelor Honours), graduate (Masters), and postgraduate research (MPhil and PhD) programs across six faculties: Arts and Humanities, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, Social Sciences, Biological Sciences, Business Studies, and Law.

Research infrastructure is centered on the Wazed Miah Science Research Center, Research Innovation Centre, and Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC), supported by a 21-hall residential campus, a digital library with remote access, and dedicated ICT Cell.

The institution's revenue mechanics are characteristic of a public university in Bangladesh: government funding via the University Grants Commission and Ministry of Education, supplemented by regulated tuition and fee structures that are not publicly disclosed. Goto-market operates through centralized national admission portals (ju-admission.org, bachelor.ju-admission.com, postgrad.ju-admission.com) and dedicated channels for weekend/evening continuing-education programs serving working professionals. Customers are segmented into higher education students, the research community, and residential students requiring on-campus accommodation and support services such as BNCC, Rover Scouts, counselling, and medical services. Notable research output includes two patents-pending in Malaysia for fiber-optic comb-filter technology from the Physics department, and recognized scholarship performance (Erasmus Mundus, Prime Minister Gold Medal).
