Myanmar's universities, region by region โ from Wikidata, not the ministry.
Myanmar's universities are mostly state institutions under the Ministry of Education's Department of Higher Education โ arts and science universities, technological universities and computer universities in most regions and states. This directory lists 77 from Wikidata.
Not an official list
This list comes from Wikidata, a community-maintained database (retrieved 2026-10-23) โ not from the country's regulator. It may include institutions that have closed, merged or been renamed, or that have lost or never had official recognition, and it may miss others. We leave out entries Wikidata marks as dissolved or closed, but that filter is only as up to date as Wikidata. Only institutions whose name calls them a university are listed, so recognised colleges and degree-awarding institutes are missing. Being listed here is not proof of accreditation.
Before you apply, check with the Ministry of Education's Department of Higher Education. (Links checked on 23 October 2026.)
The UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in Myanmar reports armed conflict expanding across the country since the coup of February 2021, with hundreds of schools destroyed. A/79/550, 25 October 2024, paras. 25โ26.

What isn't here, and why
Myanmar's Ministry of Education lists the universities under its Department of Higher Education on its website, which states no reuse terms, so this page is built from Wikidata instead and is not a copy of it.
This list is from Wikidata, a community-maintained source โ retrieved 2026-10-23. A university missing here is a gap in that source, not a judgement about the university, and being listed here is not proof of accreditation: check with the national regulator. Public or private status is shown only where Wikidata records it (3 of 77).
