WHO WE ARE?

We Have More Than 5 Decades Of Experience in Medical Education

The birth of Bapuji Educational Association in 1958 was a milestone in the history of Davangere. Today there are more than forty six educational institutions right from Primary & Secondary education to Medical, Dental, Engineering, Nursing, M.B.A, M.C.A, Law, Pharmacy, Arts, Science, Commerce etc. These institutions not only cater to the educational needs of the students of Davangere district but also the students of other districts, states and abroad.
