Karnataka is known today as a pioneer in IT andbiotech. But its many visionaries realised the importance of education and hence it is known for its many universities which offer a range of courses. Here's a thumbnail sketch of some of them:
Bangalore University (BU) is considered to be among the oldest in India, having been established in 1886 by The British Government as Central College, and later renamed in 1964 as Bangalore University. University Visvesvaraya College of Engineering (UVCE), famed for its engineers, also comes under BU.
The Gazetteer says the University of Mysore became the first University outside the domain of the English administration in India. It is said to be the sixth oldest university in India. It was established in 1916 by the then Mysore Maharaja.
Today, it is well known for its courses that range from Ancient History and Architecture to Jainology, Sericulture, and Polymer science and even a Master's in GIS.
Karnatak University, Dharwad, established in 1949, has a range of departments from Linguistics to Folklore, Applied Genetics to Philosophy and Women's Studies. Its PG Centres offer courses in Marine Science and Marine Zoology.
Kuvempu University, established in 1987, offers courses as diverse as Wildlife Management, MTech in Nano Science as well as a five-year integrated course in Applied Chemistry.
Mangalore University offers courses in Geo informatics, as well as those in Ocean Technology under its Ocean Science and Technology Cell.
Karnataka State Open University in Mysore offers distant education programmes for those who wish to pursue their academics while working or want to pursue their education after a break in studies.
The Karnataka State Women's University in Gulbarga also offers unusual courses through its distant education programmes even as it offers conventional full time courses.
Apart from these universities, there is also the University of Agricultural Sciences, which has branches in Shimoga, Bangalore, Hassan and Mandya.
There's forestry education in Ponnnampet, and sericulture in Chintamani, and the Karnataka Horticulture University in Bagalkot, besides veterinary science at well known colleges in the state.
Besides, there is the Visvesvaraya Technological Institute in Belgaum.
Karnataka also boasts of the National Institute of Mental Health and Neuro Sciences, a premier institute, in Bangalore.
These are only some of the educational institutes and universities in the state. Private players too have played a significant part in attracting students from all over India and abroad to the state in pursuit of education, notably in the field of engineering and medicine, and in general education.
With the emphasis on MBA, private management institutes have also drawn students from far and near.
