About Savitribai Phule Pune University

Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU), formerly the University of Pune, is a public state university located on Ganeshkhind Road in Pune, Maharashtra. Established by the Bombay Government in 1949 and renamed in 2014 in honour of social reformer Savitribai Phule, SPPU is one of the largest universities in India by enrolment, anchoring a network of 700+ affiliated colleges across Pune, Ahilyanagar (formerly Ahmednagar) and Nashik districts.

SPPU has 46 university departments organised into 7 faculties — Arts, Commerce, Science, Management, Mental Moral & Social Sciences, Law, and Engineering & Technology.
