B.V.B.COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY
Hubli - 580 031


Mighty institutions like mighty rivers, have humble beginnings. In 1915 when the K. L. E. Society came into existence the circumstances were hardly favourable. The then British Government had lukewarm sympathy, and the poverty stricken masses had feeble capability for such ventures. It was the missionary zeal of a few veteran educationists like the late Prof. S.S.Basavanal, Late Shri H.F.Kattimani, Late Shri B.B.Mamadapur, Late Prof.M.R.Sakhare, Late Shri P.R.Chikodi, Late Shri V.V.Patil and the Late Shri B.S.Hanchinal that made the establishment of the K.L.E.Society possible, in spite of all the odds. Thanks to the spirit of service and sacrifice of those pioneers, the society has progressed by leaps and bounds in the course of these decades and has come to rank among the best educational societies of our country. It is a premier educational Society in this part of the country, having to its credit as many as 50 educational institutions, right from the pre-primary stage to the Post Graduate level, both in Karnataka and neighbouring states. Manned by competent academicians of repute, these institutions are providing education to thousands of knowledge thirsty students.

Amongst the many coloured flowers borne by the Society, the place of pride and eminence goes to the Red Rose, the B.V.B.COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY, HUBLI.

FUNDING
