It provides education in one of the widest range of disciplines to students from all across the country.

This university and the Gujarat University Courses were evolved out from the Ahmedabad Education Society.
In the year this University was developed by the Gujarat University Act of the Government of Gujarat. This university was developed as a affiliating and teaching university.There are various criteria for Gujarat University admission, they conduct different qualifying exam and through those merit exams students get their score and on the basis of that score the students can take admission in different courses and there are few courses like MBBS, MD where the University’s score of the examination is not valid instead NEET scores are considered.
