About Our Society
BHS Managing Committee was established in 1942 by a group of eminent educationists and philanthropists. It was registered as a non-profit body dedicated to the cause of education. Its primary concern was to focus on promoting education for young girls and boys in Bangalore.
The first step was taken in 1942 with the establishment of Bangalore High School in Visheswarapuram, Bangalore. In the years that rolled by the management decided to stay Pre-university & Degree courses. Today 17 institutions funcation under the aegis of BHSHES.
In 1945 Vijaya College with Pre-University courses was established on R.V. Road, Basavanagudi, Bangalore. This institution was started under the Stewardship of the then President Late Rao Bahadur Prof. B. Venkateshchar, Rtd. Director of the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore and the dedicated efforts of the then Secretary late Dharmaprakasha L.S. Venkaji Rao, a prominent businessman, the Managing Committee started in 1955-75 saw the establishment of new Institutions. These institutions were to cater to the growing demands of the growing city Bangalore. The following Institutions were establishment during this period :
- Vijaya Evening College

- Bangalore High School, Jayanagar
Between 1975 and 1990 the management constituted the infrastructure with adequate buildings, laboratory equipment and other facilities. The BHS Managing Committee took a leap forward in gearing its educational planning and experience in consonance with the National Education Policy in an endeavour to foster economic and social development. It was then that the managing committee transformed itself to form BHS Higher Education Society. A new era in its history was thus shared in, an era of adopting innovative programmes which could contribute to manpower requirements to the possible extent in its capacity.
The BHS Higher Education Society set itself to work by an object oriented approach, the highlights of which are
- to meet the demands of diversified educational needs of the growing society.
- to foster job-oriented training programmes.
- to create opportunities in education for the average and below average students.
