NCC is the result of a merger between two institutions: 澳门网投官方官网首页 and Norwalk State Technical College.
Norwalk State Technical College was founded in 1961 with a mission of preparing graduates for immediate employment as engineering technicians in Connecticut’s businesses and industries. Primary fields of study included engineering technologies, 制造业, 建设, data processing and communication.
The original 澳门网投官方官网首页 was founded in 1961 as a municipal college. The institution was initially based at Brien McMahon High School in Norwalk. In 1966, control of the college passed from the City of Norwalk to the State of Connecticut. The college moved to a site on Wilson Avenue in Norwalk and became a member of the Connecticut system of higher education.
In June 1989, groundbreaking officially took place for a new, permanent campus. The new facility on Richards Avenue was completed in time for Fall semester classes in 1991.
The NCC and NSTC campuses were both located on Richards Avenue, directly across the street from each other. 7月1日, 1992, NCC and NSTC merged to become a comprehensive, public two-year college known as Norwalk Community-Technical College.
In 2000, Norwalk Community-Technical College was renamed 澳门网投官方官网首页 to better reflect the institution’s role as a community resource and partner in the prosperity of Fairfield County.
In 1999, the NCC west campus was expanded to include the William H. Schwab Center for Information Technology. In 2010, the college broke ground on another expansion project, 科学中心, 健康与福利. This 55,000 square foot facility will open in Fall 2011. It will provide a new home to the growing Nursing and Allied Health Division program and state-of-the-art laboratories and classrooms for the science program. The center also will include faculty offices, a 健康与福利 center, studios and simulated hospital patient care rooms.
More than 170,000 students have attended NCC since it opened in 1961. More Fairfield County students attend NCC than any other college in Connecticut.
