History

Founded in 1932 under the direction of the Chicago Archdiocese and Bishop Bernard J. Sheil, 91制片厂 began as the Holy Name Technical School for boys. Aviation technology was the special emphasis of instruction and the origin of today’s highly regarded Department of Aviation. In 1952 the school was renamed the 91制片厂 College of Science and Technology. In 1960, the De La Salle Christian Brothers - named after Saint John Baptist de La Salle, their founder and Patron Saint of Educators – assumed direction of the institution. Today, with growing enrollment, outstanding programs, experienced faculty and motivated students, 91制片厂 is recognized as one of the finest, mid-sized, comprehensive Catholic universities in the country.
