New England Institute of Technology

From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia

New England Institute of Technology is a private, accredited, non-profit technical college offering Associate’s and Bachelor’s of Science degrees in 31 programs generally geared toward persons already in the work force like some 3,000 such similar institutions in the United States. Established in 1940, it operates on a four-quarter per year program at ten weeks per quarter. This allows one to obtain an Associate's Degree in one and one half years or a Bachelor's Degree in three years. It is commonly referred to as New England Tech.

The school is accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges.

History

Back in 1940, Mr. Ernest G. Earle, the founder of what was to become New England Institute of Technology, stretched out his hand fewer than 20 times to congratulate the first class to complete his course in radio repair. The school consisted of three rented rooms on the sixth floor of an office building in downtown Providence.

It's quite possible that the last thing on Mr. Earle's mind was the notion that in 60 years New England Institute of Technology would be a thriving college serving thousands of students from all around the country and the world. His goal was to provide practical, hands-on training at reasonable cost by training that would lead to a job that was a cut above the factory work that was the norm for the times. He was constantly watching the evolution of the economy and was not afraid to respond.

When soldiers came home from World War II, New England Institute of Technology had already invested in a laboratory to offer courses in plastics technology, an infant industry that was about to boom. In those early days, Mr. Earle's students were practical, serious-minded people. The first graduation ceremony lasted less than 15 minutes. It is said that some in the class who were all men had to leave early to go back to work. Mr. Earle rode the swings in the economy much this way through the '50s and '60s. He invested in new training laboratories to teach electronics when electronics was becoming an important industry. He did the same by offering training in appliance and small engine repair and other new disciplines. Along the way he prospered, lost, reinvested and survived. Looking back, we now marvel at how Mr. Earle was able to keep things together as well and for as long as he did. At the same time, we see clearly even today the powerful, binding ties that link our days as a trade school to the success we now enjoy as a college.
