The institute was in the year 1958 with the start of a first grade college in Davangere. . Before this, Children in Davangere could study only till High School or Class 10. There was no college to continue their higher studies and were forced to go to larger cities like Bengaluru, Mysuru, etc., To address this need, Sri Dharmaratnakara Rajanahally Maddurayappa, a well known Businessman and a Philanthropist, built the first College which is now popularly known as DRM Science College. To manage the administrative affairs of this college and to foster the cause of education in Davanagere town, Bapuji Educational Association was formed by him. Under his tenure as the Founder President, several colleges including Medicine, Engineering, Nursing, Commerce, etc., were built. Then ruler of state and King of Mysore, His Highness Sri Jayachamarajendra Wadiyar noted his contributions and conferred him with title of "Dharmaratnakara".
