DPBS College was established in 1965 by the Anglo Vedic Educational Association (AVEA), Anoopshahr, to honor the memory of the late Shri Durga Prasad Ji, a distinguished social activist and educationist, and to promote higher education in this backward region. Until 1983, the college offered only a B.Sc. degree at the undergraduate level. In 1984, a new building for the Arts faculty was constructed and donated to the college by Jaiprakash Seva Sansthan. In recognition of this generous contribution, the management added the name of Shri Baljeet Singh, father of Shri Jaiprakash Gaur, to the institution. Since then, it has been known as Durga Prasad Baljeet Singh (DPBS) College.
Postgraduate classes in Physics and Sanskrit were introduced in 1992, followed by BCA in 2001, M.Sc. (Chemistry) in 2001, B.Ed. in 2002, B.Com. in 2005, and B.A. (Physical Education) in 2010. In recent years, the college expanded further by adding B.A. courses in Hindi, English, History, Home Science, Drawing & Painting, and Geography in 2023, as well as M.Com. in 2023 and M.A. (History and Political Science) in 2024.
