The Bangalore University was founded on July 10, 1964 as a federal
univ with jurisdiction extended to the greater Bangalore city.
Initially, the university was built around two premier centers of
learning, The Central College and The University Visvesvaraya
College of Engineering. With the promulgation of the Karnataka State
Universities Ordinance 1975, which aimed at bringing uniform law for
all the Universities in the State, the univ lost its federal
character and became an affiliating university
Bangalore University has completed forty one years of fruitful
existence and has come to be hailed as one of the largest
universities of Asia. Though original intended to be a federal
university, it has eventually emerged as an affiliating University.

Six faculties- Arts, Science, Commerce and Management , Education,
