The group's education history began in 1982 with a small school of about thirty students and later expanded into a network of schools and preschools in Bengaluru. Vidyashilp University was created as a multidisciplinary institution combining applied sciences, engineering, liberal arts, business, design and law. Its academic organization includes the School of Engineering and Technology, School of Liberal Arts and Sciences, School of Law, School of Design, and School of Business and Entrepreneurship. The university's educational model emphasizes interdisciplinary learning, research, critical thinking, communication, entrepreneurship and the ability to connect knowledge across conventional subject boundaries. Programs are supported by project work, laboratories, studios, academic mentoring and collaboration across schools. The founding campus at Bettenahalli, Kundana Hobli provides a residential-style learning environment on the northern edge of Bengaluru. The Bengaluru location connects the university with technology, startups, design, law, research and business communities across the metropolitan region. As a new university, Vidyashilp continues building research centers, alumni networks and advanced academic programs while drawing on the education group's long school-level legacy.
