Baburaoji Gholap College , Pune

P.D.E.A’s Baburaoji Gholap College, Sangvi, Pune-27 was established in June 1989 with the motivation of Late Prof. Ramakrishna More, President of PuneDistrict Education Association. The College was established, keeping in view the fact that there was no college of higher education within the fast developing area ofSangvi, Aundh, Baner, Wakad, Kalewadi, Pimple Gurav, Pimple Nilakh, Thergaon,etc. The major population in this area comes from middle class and is economically weak. There are four higher secondary school in this area.

> Access to higher education was a problem for these students especially for girls since other senior colleges were more than 10 Kms. away from Sangvi. Our institute has been imparting education to the rural, semi-urban and urban masses. The college began its functioning with a few students. Today we have adequate number of classrooms, laboratories, computer centre with ample number of computers. We have competent and well qualified faculty and efficient administration tradition.

The M.C.E. Society’s President, Mr. P.A Inamdar has held this responsible position from 1983 till date. It is under the dynamic and visionary leadership of Mr. P.A. Inamdar, that MCE Society and Azam Campus grew in stature and gained recognition as a premier education hub.
