Dodappa Appa College of Engineering is one of the Premier Institutes
of Karnataka State. Established in the year 1958, by the then President
of HKE Society, Shri Mahadevappa Rampure, a great visionary and
a statesman of this region. Starting with only three traditional
departments like Civil, Mechanical and Electrical and with an intake
of 120, the college has grown phenomenally. The Under-Graduate course
in Electronics and communications Engineering was started in the
year 1967, the first to be started in the entire Karnataka State.
The College now has eleven under-graduate courses and eight post
graduate courses and an intake of 670 students at the undergraduate
level and 144 Students at the post graduate level. Alumni of this
college are holding many senior positions in Government, industries,
organizations in the country and abroad and have brought name, fame
and laurels to this Institution.
The
founders of the Institution have provided
the necessary and sufficient ingredients to this Institute for its sustained and multi
splendored growth. The college has ventured into areas where many
fear to tread, by opening many un-conventional disciplines like Cement
& Ceramics (the only college to offer this in the
entire state and one of the very colleges in the whole
country), along with the most popular ones.

The college is one of the first
and the finest Institutes to be started under the banner of the
esteemed Hyderabad Karnataka Education Society with Direct Central
Assistance. The H.K.E. Society now has around 40 educational
Institutes under its umbrage, spread around the entire state. This
College has been one of the most favorite Institutes for funding, by
