In connection with this rapid growth, a number of private universities are attempting to develop and implement their e-learning platforms in order to provide up to date and quality education in Bangladesh. As implementing a technology that is not widely accepted by users is completely wastage of resources, this paper intends to identify the determinants of students' acceptance of e-learning platforms in the private universities of Bangladesh by applying the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), which was solely proposed by Davis in 1986. A total number of 300 undergraduate and graduate business students from three different private universities were surveyed. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation modeling (PLS-SEM) tool was employed to analyze data.
