B.Sc. (Hons.) in Sports and Exercise with Research 

at SSSS Pune, Lavale

Hello, I could not find any good reviews of both these courses on the web. But as per my research on the internet, both these colleges seem equally good. But some people say that, if you want a good University degree, you  should go for IISM (Mumbai University) but if the choice is to go for a more well maintained and well built campus, opt for the private one i.e. Symbiosos. Placement wise, the details on the web mention that both are equally good.
