History: Vidya Prasarak Mandal (VPM) is a premier educational trust in Thane which was established in August 1935. Ex. President Late Dr. V. N. Bedekar had a dream of creating an “Island of Knowledge” (Jnandweepa) in Thane. He had a great foresight for young generation of developing Thane city and need of education to turn this youth into good citizens of India and with this singular zeal, and enthusiastic support from his colleagues, succeeded in bringing it in reality. In 1969, Vidya Prasarak Mandal‟s College started functioning with all three faculties -Arts, Commerce and Science on a 13.5 acre piece of land which was marshy, muddy area inundated by water of the nearby Thane creek during high tide. The then Chief Minister of Goa, Hon. Shri Dayanand (Bhausaheb) Bandodkar gave a generous donation for the construction of Science College building in his father‟s name „Balkrishna Naik Bandodkar‟. The affiliation of College was changed to University of Mumbai from University of Pune in June 1975, and in the same year, B. N. Bandodkar College of Science was separated from the Arts and Commerce College for convenience of administration. Our college received UGC recognition from 1986. Late Dr. V. N. Bedekar, founder member of VPM had great foresight for the young generation of developing Thane city and aware of the need of education to turn these youth into good citizens of India. Our institute has great legacy of Gyan-Tapasvi Dr. V. N. Bedekar. Continuing his legacy the present leadership of Dr. Vijay Bedekar, chairman of VPM and Principal Dr. (Mrs.) M. K. Pejaver provide clear vision and mission to the institution.

Location: The College is very close to Thane Railway Station, TMT, NMMT and State Transport Bus Stand.

Accreditations: College was assessed for Accreditation in August 2003 by the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) set up by UGC and was awarded B++ grade. After Reaccreditation “A” grade was awarded in 2010. Our college received the Best College Award from University of Mumbai in the year 2009- 2010. Our college is selected by Ministry of Science and Technical Education for the programme under FIST “O” Level in 2012.
