International Students' Centre: International Connection
India's first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal
Nehru, said "The University stands for humanism and
tolerance, for reason, for adventure of ideas and for the
search for truth. It stands for the forward march of the
human race towards ever higher objectives. If the
Universities discharge their duties adequately, then it is
well with the nation and the people."
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 Students 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 Govt.
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.
