DESCRIPTION :

Bangalore University located in the Garden City of Bangalore aptly hailed as the ?IT capital of India? was established in July 1964 as an offshoot of the University of Mysore¸ primarily to include institutions of Higher learning located in the metropolitan city of Bangalore and the districts of rural Bangalore¸ Kolar. Initially¸ the two premier colleges of the city¸ the Central College(CC) and the University Vivesvaraya College of Engineering formed the nucleus of the Bangalore University.  Soon after the establishment of the Bangalore University¸ as a first step in the reorganization of courses of instructions¸ the University introduced Honours courses in the year 1965-66. 
 
Three-year honours courses in Botany¸ Chemistry¸ Economics¸ English¸ Geology¸ Kannada¸ Mathematics and Zoology which were conducted only at the University postgraduate departments¸ attracted many brilliant students. All honours-passed students were admitted to post-graduate courses on priority and B.A.  and B.Sc. graduates who marginally missed admission to the postgraduate courses were given an opportunity to join the final year honours course and seek admission to post-graduate courses thereafter. Since 1964¸
 
Bangalore University has grown both in size and strength to include a large number of affiliated colleges¸ P.G. Centres of research and a rich diversity of programme options. In consonance with this expansion¸ in 1973 the University moved into a new campus ?Jnana Bharathi? (JB) located on a sprawling 1¸100 acres of land and shifted many of its post-graduate departments to this newly established campus. At present¸ the JB Campus houses the administrative office a large number of post-graduate departments¸ Directorates¸ Centres of higher learning¸ Gandhi Bhavan¸ Ambedkar Bhavan¸ NSS Bhavan¸ Outdoor Stadium and other support services
