Savitribai Phule Pune University

Savitribai Phule Pune University is one of Maharashtra's major public universities. It offers teaching and research across science, humanities, social sciences, languages, management, commerce and interdisciplinary fields and has an extensive network of affiliated colleges.

Student Strength

According to SPPU's NIRF 2025 institutional submission, the programmes reported in the NIRF student-strength table total approximately 6,220 students (739 UG 3-year + 541 UG 4-year + 33 PG 1-year + 4,545 PG 2-year + 55 PG 3-year + 307 integrated PG). This figure relates to the programmes reported by the university in that submission and should not be confused with the much larger combined enrolment across all SPPU-affiliated colleges.

Faculty Strength

SPPU has a substantial academic faculty working across its university departments and research centres. Faculty numbers can differ depending on whether the count refers only to university teaching departments or includes the wider affiliated-college system. For a directory page, I recommend displaying the latest verified university-level faculty count separately rather than combining affiliated-college faculty.

Popular Courses and Programmes

SPPU offers or oversees programmes across a wide variety of disciplines, including MA, MSc, MCom, MBA, MCA, LLM, M.Ed., Computer Science, Biotechnology, Bioinformatics, Environmental Science, Media and Communication, Performing Arts, Languages, Social Sciences and PhD programmes.
