There are six halls of residence at RUET campus. The total capacity of these halls is about 1550. Name of the halls with their respective capacities are depicted in the Table I. Some of the halls are named after the national hero who sacrificed their lives in the liberation war of Bangladesh in 1971.

The existing capacity is around 90% of the total number of students of RUET. Non-residential students are to be attached with a hall so that the administrative control on the students becomes hall based.

All halls are set in gardens and frontal green plantations and lawns and all halls are within easy walking distance of the University. The students live in these halls on community basis, while 2, 3 or 4 students share a single room, depending on its size. Each hall has a common room facility. A provost and some assistant provosts administrate each hall.
