The main motto of DV is "education is the birth right of each and every individual". At that time, there were only a few institutions in Maharashtra providing engineering and medical courses while the number of student desirous of seeking admission to these courses, was far too large. DV therefore came forward to provide an opportunity to all such students to pursue their desired education. Situation has changed now. There are many similar institutions, but DV has not lost its relevance because the current system still makes this education too expensive and entry criteria pre-requisites deprive many students from technical education.

DV has maintained its autonomous structure to maintain its dynamic nature and to provide education to those, who are denied the right to get desired education. The autonomous nature of DV is conveyed to the students quite explicitly, so that the students are under no illusions. Many international dignitaries including some of the Nobel Laureates have lauded the concept of Dnyaneshwar Vidyapeeth .

Dnyaneshwar Vidyapeeth was established by late Dr. Manohar Apte, a pioneer in the movement of Open University concept, in 1980.

Late Dr. Manohar Apte was a legendary visionary and an extremely dynamic person who was always a positive and progressive thinker, ever ahead of times. He always thought that ‘Education is a birthright of everybody. There should not be any obstacle of marks, financial status for a student seeking admission to Autonomous Diploma / Abhiyantriki Visharad Engineering courses. Doors of technical education should always be open to all desirous students.

Dr. Apte believed that success of a student depends on his burning desire, ambition and devotion to achieve and not on marks in some examination.

It was decided by Dnyaneshwar Vidyapeeth to start a college in the memory of great late Dr. Apte as a mark of tribute to the stalwart. Hence in April 2003 ‘Manohar Apte college was established in the Moraya Industrial Estate of Bhosari. This is a novel feature to start an Engineering College in Industrial Estate. Initially a building supervisor course was started and from August 2003, regular courses in Mechanical, Civil, Electronics, Computer, Automobile, streams for Autonomous Diploma and Abhiyantriki Visharad in Engineering were started.
