B.M.S. College of Engineering (BMSCE), established in 1946, is one of India’s oldest and most prestigious private engineering institutions, founded by visionary philanthropist Late Sri B. M. Sreenivasaiah and later nurtured by Late Sri B. S. Narayan. Located in the historic and culturally vibrant Basavanagudi area of Bengaluru, Karnataka, BMSCE is governed by the B.M.S. Educational Trust and is permanently affiliated with Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU), Belagavi. It gained autonomous status in 2008 and is recognized by the University Grants Commission (UGC) and the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE).

The college offers a broad spectrum of undergraduate, postgraduate, and research programs in engineering, technology, management, and computer applications, combining core fundamentals with emerging interdisciplinary fields. Its academic environment emphasizes outcome-based education, advanced curriculum, research innovation, and holistic development. BMSCE’s commitment to quality has earned it the highest NAAC grade of A++ and Tier-I accreditation from the National Board of Accreditation (NBA) for eligible programs.

Boasting a vibrant student community of thousands, BMSCE has produced over 40,000 engineers and leaders who contribute to industry, research, and society worldwide. The campus life balances academics with extracurricular engagement — from cultural and technical festivals to active clubs and student organisations.
