The University of Mumbai, formerly known as the University of Bombay, is among India’s oldest and most prestigious universities. Established in 1857 following Wood’s Education Dispatch, it was one of the first three universities set up in the country. After the city’s name changed from Bombay to Mumbai, the institution was officially renamed the University of Mumbai through a Government of Maharashtra notification published in the Government Gazette on September 4, 1996. The university received a 5-star status in 2001 and was later awarded an ‘A++’ grade by the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) in April 2017.
