The first Engineering College Government Engineering College was started by the Mysore Government in 1917 at Bangalore, later in 1965; the college was renamed after its founder as University Visvesvaraya College of Engineering. Three more collages were started in 1946. By the time of Integration of the State, there were totally five engineering colleges (two under Government and three in private sector) in the State.
