Dr. Anupama Patil I/C Principal
Welcome
From the Principal’s Desk
As the Head of the School of Visual Arts, Bharati Vidyapeeth (Deemed to be University), Pune,
it gives me great pleasure to welcome you to our institute, which is recognized as one of
India’s leading institutions in the field of Visual Arts. The institute functions on the strong values
and educational philosophy inherited from our founder, Honorable Dr. Patangrao Kadam
Saheb, whose vision of “Social Transformation through Dynamic Education” has guided
Bharati Vidyapeeth since its establishment in 1964.
The School of Visual Arts offers degree programs in Applied Art and has been among the first
institutions to introduce the B.V.A. (Applied Art) program under Bharati Vidyapeeth (Deemed
to be University). It is encouraging to see the institute make a significant mark in design
education, with students growing aesthetically, intellectually, culturally, and professionally.
Our academic results have been consistently strong, and our students are successfully
placed in various creative fields such as Advertising, Art Direction, User Interface Design,
E-learning Web Design, Exhibition Design, Product Design, Merchandising, Branding,
Photography, and Education.
Many of our students pursue higher education and gain admission to reputed national and
international design institutes in India like NID, IIT etc and abroad (UK, USA, Germany). This
reflects our commitment to providing quality education. With continued guidance from the
management and dedicated efforts of our faculty, I am confident that the School of Visual Arts
will achieve global recognition in the future and continue to nurture responsible, creative, and
skilled citizens of India.
