The UniversityIIT History and CampusesIn 1890, when advanced education was often reserved forsociety’s elite, Chicago minister Frank Wakely Gunsaulusdelivered what came to be known as the ”Million DollarSermon.” From the pulpit of his South Side church, nearthe site Illinois Institute of Technology now occupies,Gunsaulus said that with a million dollars he could builda school where students of all backgrounds could preparefor meaningful roles in a changing industrial society.Inspired by Gunsaulus’ vision, Philip Danforth Armour,Sr. (1832-1901) gave 1 million to found the ArmourInstitute-and Armour, his wife, Malvina Belle OgdenArmour (1842-1927) and their son J. (Jonathan) OgdenArmour (1863-1927) continued to support the university in its early years. When Armour Institute openedin 1893, it offered professional courses in engineering,chemistry, architecture, and library science.Illinois Tech was created in 1940 by the merger of ArmourInstitute and Lewis Institute. Located on the west sideof Chicago, Lewis Institute, established in 1895 by theestate of hardware merchant and investor Allen C. Lewis,offered liberal arts as well as science and engineeringcourses for both men and women. At separate meetingsheld by their respective boards on Oct. 26, 1939, thetrustees of Armour and Lewis voted to merge the twocolleges. A Cook County circuit court decision on April23, 1940 solidified the merger.The Institute of Design (ID), founded in Chicago byLàszlò Moholy-Nagy in 1937, merged with Illinois Techin 1949.Chicago-Kent College of Law, founded in 1887, becamepart of the university in 1969, making Illinois Institute ofTechnology one of the few technology-based universitieswith a law school.Also in 1969, the Stuart School of Management andFinance - now known as the Stuart School of Business6- was established thanks to a gift from the estate ofLewis Institute alumnus and Chicago financier, HaroldLeonard Stuart. The program became the Stuart Schoolof Business in 1999.The Midwest College of Engineering, founded in 1967,joined the university in 1986, giving Illinois Tech apresence in west suburban Wheaton with what is todayknown as the Rice Campus-home to Illinois Tech’s Schoolof Applied Technology.In December 2006, the University Technology Park atIllinois Institute of Technology, an incubator and lifesciences/tech start-up facility, was started in existingresearch buildings located on the south end of MainCampus. As of April 2014, the University Tech Park atIllinois Institute of Technology is home to many companies.Today, IIT is a private, Ph.D.-granting university withprograms in engineering, science, human sciences, applied technology, architecture, business, design, and law.One of the 22 institutions that comprise the Association of Independent Technological Universities (AITU),IIT offers exceptional preparation for professions thatrequire technological sophistication. Through a committed faculty and close personal attention, IIT provides achallenging academic program focused by the rigor ofthe real world.The university has five campuses in the Chicago area.The 120-acre Main Campus, centered at 33rd and StateStreets in Chicago, as well as many of its buildings, wasdesigned by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, who directed thearchitecture program (arch.iit.edu) at IIT from 1938 to1958 and was one of the 20th century’s most influentialarchitects. S. R. Crown Hall, home of IIT College ofArchitecture, was named a National Historic Landmarkin 2001, and part of the IIT Main Campus was enteredinto the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.IIT Graduate Bulletin 2014-2016
