Since its inception on Feb. 10, 1949, the University of Pune has striven to live up to these ideals. We believe that the University is responsible not just for imparting knowledge, but for locating knowledge in society; so as to build a better future. In keeping with this, the University departments have introduced the credit system, so as to facilitate transfer of credits at national and international levels.

With a view to assist international students, the University of Pune has established International Centre in the University campus. University of Pune model for Internationalization of Higher Education has these unique features:

In the age of globalization, University of Pune has set out to make its presence felt globally through internationalization of its programmes and opening new avenues of association for global student community.

With the approval of UGC and the Central Government, the University of Pune proposes to setup Campus Abroad. A number of MOUs have been signed with leading Universities whereby sharing of the facilities in the university and exchange of teachers and students can be made possible.

Besides looking after admissions and eligibility, the Centre coordinates with ICCR, Ministry of External Affairs, different embassies and consulates for various purposes including Scholarships.
