Ministry of Education and Higher Education (MoEHE) has enhanced efforts to open new private universities in the country to enable more students to pursue their higher studies in the country.
Increasing its commitment towards a vibrant, growing higher education community, a new private Indian university — a Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU) campus — will open in September at Barwa, Abu Hamour.
The university will offer five academic programmes initially. Under a five-year plan of the MoEHE, three more private universities are expected to open in Qatar, giving students more options to pursue academic programmes of their choice, tailored to their budget. Higher education institutions offered 290 educational programmes for the academic year 2019-20.
