KITTEL ARTS COLLEGE is the premier institution of higher education in North-Karnataka, welcoming students from all spheres of life, regardless of caste, creed, religion or socio-economic background. The Basel Mission Higher Education Centre is one of the pioneering trusts, which has been quenching the thrust of knowledge since 1840’s. In continuation of the same legacy Kittel College was started in 1968 by CSI KND BMHECin the name of renowned lexicographer Rev. Ferdinand Kittel for imparting quality education. In the year 1988 Kittel College was bifurcated into Kittel Science and Kittel Arts College. Thus Kittel Arts College works with the motto “Not To Be Served; But to Serve”.
