Bangalore
University can claim a place of pride in the implementation of
social justice as enshrined in the Constitution of India. Bangalore
University started as a nucleus of Science centers of the Mysore
University, it was endowed with the status of an University in
1964. Though originally intended to be a Federal University comprising
of leading institutions of higher education in the city, it eventually
emerged as an affiliating University. It grew in size and variety
enormously in a short time. Even after medical and engineering
colleges were all taken away from it to form two specialized
Universities recently, the Bangalore University still commands
a student strength of nearly three lakhs! As many as 375 Colleges
and over 70 Post Graduate departments, making it the largest
University in India, perhaps in Asia, may be in the world!
The Bangalore University also administers four Constituent colleges, of which
the Central College, University, Visveswaraya College of Engineering are
famous all over the country.
