About

The year was 1935. The Indian nation was yet to be born. Ruled by the British regime there was more deprivation than development. While many chose the path of fight to gain political independence, one man with a vision treaded a different path of securing academic independence. Sri N. Ananthachar dared to start a primary school on 15th August 1935, a date Indian destiny chose for its independence, twelve years later. An endowed teacher with a Master's Degree, the founder of APS institutions, initially chose to trade in vegetables in the Basavanagudi region of Bangalore.

This enterprising spirit soon won the appreciation of locals and even Dewan of Mysore among other literary stalwarts such as Sri Balasaraswathi, Sri R. Gopala Krishna Iyengar and others. The Director of Public Instruction gave this school its recognition in quick time, in the very next year.

Thus was born a great noble educational institution. Today it takes pride in having been the mentor to thousands of academic accomplishments through its various institutions.

With a vision to mould the raw youngsters to good citizens and competent professionals who can take up challenges at international level, it continues its service with a clear mission to continuously impart quality education with the help of dedicated faculty. It strives to imbibe technological excellence and social ethics in the students which the founder of the Trust stood for.

APS Forays into Technical Education

Twelve years before the Indian independence, the APS institutions were founded. Eleven years after independence, it forayed into technical education. The Acharya Patashala Polytechnic was founded in 1958 under the 2nd Five Year Plan of the Government of India and the Government of Mysore. Founded at a time when the country was experiencing acute shortage of trained technical men in the field of Engineering it started imparting education in Civil, Electrical and Mechanical Engineering.

Thus seeds of APS technical education were sown about in Somanahalli in Bangalore South Taluk with the founding of the Polytechnic on a 100 acre plot of which 90 acres were a generous grant by the Government.

A seat of excellent technical education, the campus was painstakingly developed with the best infrastructure and facilities such as library and sports. APS Educational Trust's commitment to technical education is thus deep and demonstrative. Because of this it has been successful to draw into its fold the cream of students and facility. I appreciate your interest in our institution and look forward to you being part of the APS family.
