It was established in 1942. It is one of the oldest colleges in India. The college is affiliated with Bangalore University. In 1946, Bangalore Intermediate College was renamed as Vijaya College. In 1947, the present campus area measuring 450 ft X 500 ft was sanctioned by the City Municipality, Bangalore. A building was constructed to house the college in the new campus by January 1953. HistoryIn the early 1940s, only two colleges, Government Intermediate college and St. Joseph's college, were in the entire city of Bangalore. Admission to Government College was difficult because of less student intake and admission to St. Joseph's college was beyond the reach of many students. Citing this hardship, a group of people came together and mooted the idea of starting a new educational institution. The group included Rao Bahadur Prof B. Venkateshachar, Prof V.T. Srinivasan, Sri K. Lakshminarayana Rao, Sri K. Srinivasa Rao, Sri.C.R. Narayana Rao and others. BHS managing committee was constituted in 1944. The occasional contributions of other educationists such as Sri K.N.Guruswamy, Sri Rao Bahadur Dharma Prakasha L.S. Venkoji Rao, Sri H.Ramaswamy and Col. G.S.Subba Rao aided the effort. Degree classes began in 1956. Initially B.Sc. course with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics combination were started, followed by a Chemistry, Botany and Zoology combination. In 1970, a Bachelor of Commerce course was started. During the 1980s the college started new B.Sc. combinations:
