The Karnataka State Dr. Gangubai Hangal Music and Performing Arts University in Mysuru, established in the academic year 2008-09 with the vision of nurturing musical talent and promoting Indian classical music and fine arts worldwide, has been functioning without a campus of its own for nearly 15 years. Since its inception, it has operated from a heritage building on JLB Road in Lakshmipuram.
Now, the long wait is finally ending. The University will soon shift to its own campus, coming up on a 5.5-acre plot near Nadanahalli on the outskirts of Mysuru, at the foot of Chamundi Hill.
