If you haven't collected your degree certificate from Pune University during convocation, the university will send it to your respective college. However, if you haven't received it yet, you must take the initiative to inquire with the convocation department to obtain your certificate.

When applying for a degree certificate during convocation, the best option is to apply for it by post.

What is your review of Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU)?

SD

Saikat Das,

22 Oct 21

One of my friends recently graduated from Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU). According to her, it is better to do anything rather than joining this institute. She mentioned some of the reasons that made her feel this way.

  • The institute only focuses on making money and not actual education.
  • The syllabus and curriculum followed by the institute are outdated.
  • Practical training is not properly given, making students lag behind the industry demands.
  • Basic things like a proper academic calendar are not provided.
  • Re-evaluation is time-consuming and usually not done properly.
  • A 60% from SPPU is not considered good enough for admission to other colleges. They do not consider it as first class.
  • They are known to have the worst and uncooperative staff members. They are not at all helpful or considerate about any problem.

It is suggested that you do not opt for SPPU as they are highly unprofessional. They do not have a proper way to conduct classes, assemblies, extracurricular activities and get involved in everything half-heartedly. SPPU is a good example of how a university should be not.

Which is better Pune University or Mumbai University?

AB

Advaith Bhaskar

30 Mar 23

Both Pune University and Mumbai University are well-esteemed institutions in India imparting superior quality education. However, the one that is suitable for you depends on your individual needs and preferences. Some factors that are usually considered are location, campus culture, and research opportunities. It's advisable to research both universities and visit them in person if possible to make a wise decision. 

In my opinion, however, Pune University has a much higher preference rate than Mumbai university. This is because of the following factors:

  • Pune University has a better and well-structured curriculum in comparison to Mumbai University, especially in Engineering.
  • The academic rules are more strict at Pune University and the number of backlogs allowed is also less than at Mumbai University thus maintaining the quality of Education.
  • The exams are conducted consequently and little time is given for preparation. This makes it more challenging for the students and prepares them well for the future.

If you genuinely want to understand concepts and create amazing memories along with a lot of struggles, Pune University is for you. If you are looking for a laid-back campus life and a calm learning environment, then Mumbai University is best for you.
