Indian River State College company history timeline

1963

The College moved to its present campus on Virginia Avenue in 1963 after the City of Fort Pierce donated 87 acres of land to IRSC.

1970

As the College continued to grow in scope and role, the Board of Trustees felt a name representative of the College’s comprehensive service was appropriate and, in 1970, changed its name to Indian River Community College.

In 1970, the Board of Trustees decided a name more fitting of the College's service to the community was needed, and it was renamed Indian River Community College.

2007

On 10 September 2007, IRCC's Board of Trustees voted unanimously to change the college's name to Indian River College, as it began its transition into a four-year institution.

In 2007, IRSC was accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools to offer Bachelor's Degree programs in areas of regional need.

2008

In July 2008, Governor Crist signed into law a legislative bill that included Indian River in the State College Pilot Project, providing the newly named Indian River State College the opportunity to expand its Baccalaureate programs to meet both regional and statewide employment needs.

2013

In 2013, IRSC created the Virtual Campus to provide students with affordable, flexible and quality online learning opportunities that would fit into their lives.
