Osmania University is a collegiate public state university located in Hyderabad, Telangana, India. Mir Osman Ali Khan, the 7th Nizam of Hyderabad, issued a firman calling for its creation on 29 August 1917.[2] It is the third oldest university in southern India, and the first to be established in the erstwhile Kingdom of Hyderabad.[3][4][5] It was the first Indian university to use Urdu as a language of instruction,[2] although with English as a compulsory subject.[6] As of 2012, the university hosts 3,700 international students from more than 80 nations.[7]
Osmania is one of the largest university systems in the world with over 300,000 students on its campuses and affiliated colleges. The Osmania Medical College was once a part of the Osmania University System.[8] However, it is now under the supervision of Kaloji Narayana Rao University of Health Sciences.[9][10][11]
