Established in 1857, the University of Mumbai, or Mumbai University (MU), is spread over 13 acres of land and is one of the largest universities in the world.
Moreover, the first departments established were the Faculty of Arts at Elphinstone College in 1835 and the Faculty of Medicine at Grant Medical College in 1845. Both colleges existed before the university was founded and surrendered their degree-granting privileges to the university. In addition, the first degrees awarded in 1862 were Bachelor of Arts and Licentiate in Medicine.
In recent developments, earlier on March 24, MU informed that it is to conduct the examinations for the final-semester online.
