KLE Society was established more than 90 years ago in the year 1916 by seven dedicated Teachers (aptly called as Saptarishis) and three Patrons, which has transformed the educational backward region of Northern Karnataka into a fertile land of education. Presently, KLE Society is successfully running more than 205 institutions in the field of Health care (Medical, Dental, Pharmacy, Ayurved, Physiotherapy, Nursing Science), Information Technology, Law and many more conventional and non-conventional disciplines.
The great visionary efforts Dr.Prabhakar Kore,MP, Chairman KLE Society since 1985 have been pivotal in deciding to march ahead into a new millennium as an autonomous University, thereby opening up the unexpected horizon in the field of education.
The KLE University was established on 13th April, 2006 as per the Ministry of Human Resource Development, Government of India, Notification No.F.9-19/2000-U-R(A) dated 13th April, 2006, under the recommendation of University Grants Commission.
Today the KLE University within three years of its inception has many glorious credentials in the form of its meritorious students, faculty looked upon as peer and much international collaboration because of the dedication and the unending quest for excellence true to the essence of KLE University.
The University offers various Undergraduate, Postgraduate, Post doctoral, fellowship and certificate programs in the faculties of Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy, Ayurveda, Physiotherapy and Nursing. The campus is very rich and vibrant in terms of having impressive infrastructure, renowed and extensively experienced teaching faculty, state of the art teaching hospital and medical research center, having 1820 beds and top notch diagnostic facilities under one roof. The Wi-Fi and digital library, e-learning and other facilities are at par with best campuses of the country and abroad. The University is among very few institutions of the country to boast of the entire campus having Wi-Fi solution for internet access. Another mile stone achieved is the collaboration with MedRC and establishment of Smart Teach server for students to access the high quality E-curricular content so that students can learn at their own pace as supplementary measure to the excellent classroom teaching.
