About University of Mumbai
University of Mumbai is an university in Mumbai, Maharashtra, established in 1857. It is affiliated to University of Mumbai. University of Mumbai offers 12 programmes, 6 at undergraduate level and 4 at postgraduate level. These include Faculty of Humanities: programmes (UG), Faculty of Humanities: programmes (PG), Faculty of Humanities: programmes (doctoral), Faculty of Commerce & Management: programmes (UG) and Faculty of Commerce & Management: programmes (PG), among others. University of Mumbai is listed by the UGC as a Maharashtra state university (listed as “Mumbai University”, Mumbai; UGC consolidated state-university list dated 17 January 2024) and is included in the UGC Section 12(B) list as of 26 September 2022. The official university website identifies Prof. Ravindra D. Kulkarni as Vice-Chancellor. The official regulations portal documents credit-based semester systems and Ordinance 6086 on attendance, but the retrieved sources did not establish a current university-wide attendance percentage or medium of instruction for 2026-27. No university-level faculty-count submission, current university-wide industry MoU list, teaching hospital, or facilities count was sufficiently supported in the retrieved official sources. The university was formerly known as University of Bombay; the name change was notified in the Maharashtra Government Gazette on 4 September 1996. Fort is the headquarters/address used here; the official contact page also lists the Kalina campus at Vidya Nagari, Santacruz East, Mumbai 400098. AISHE identifies the institution as a State Public University.
