R.V.College Of Engineering,Bangalore

History

The Rashtreeya Sikshana Samithi Trust (RSST) was founded in the year 1940. The mission of the founder was to 'Impart Quality Education to all sections of the Society'. Sri M.C.Shivananda Sarma, an educationalist and Sri Meda Kasturi Ranga Setty, a businessman, philanthropist joined hands together to pull this movement forward. Today, six decades later, RSST through the RV institutions (Rashtreeya Vidyalayas), is in the forefront among providers of quality education in the State of Karnataka with an alumnus that's a large galaxy of intellectuals, engineers, administrators, public servants, entrepreneurs, doctors, professionals, sportspersons, scientists, teachers and researchers.

If in today's global context, the brand 'RV' immediately brings to one's mind a class of young achievers in enterprise, information technology, industry and research, it is because of the flagship institution of RSST, namely "RV College of Engineering (RVCE)".

Global recognition of RVCE's initiatives has given it the impetus to modernize itself, expand the existing and explore newer frontiers of knowledge for the benefit of the society. In the process, RVCE has been continuously evolving itself, strengthening its roots with every offshoot of a new branch. To the society to which it owes its existence, its concerns have always been to provide opportunities, especially to the underprivileged, physically challenged, disabled, and economically weak. With this motive, RVCE has been providing healthy academic ambience without frills of luxury. Commendable success notwithstanding, its commitments are deepening.

This saga of sustained success is scripted by an inspired leadership of the RSST comprising of eminent men from different vocations, chosen periodically. This commitment is unstinted and focused.

Established in 1963 with three engineering branches, today RVCE offers 12 graduate engineering programmes, 13 Master degree programmes
