History
Utica
Founded in 1946 to help train and educate returning veterans from World War II, Mohawk Valley Community College has evolved into the first community college in New York State, the largest campus between Syracuse and Albany, and a major provider of college and non- exercise credits.
MVCC was established as a New York State Institute of Applied Art & amp; Science in Utica. The institute is located at State Day School, and is located on Genesee Street in New Hartford, New York, near Utica National Insurance headquarters. MVCC is one of five post-secondary institutions established to provide technical training for New York State residents, especially returning GIs.
Utica Institute was originally specialized in retail business management and had reported the enrollment of 53 students on the opening day, October 14, 1946. More than two thirds of the first students were veterans and free tuition for New Yorkers. The first director of the school was Paul B. Richardson.
In the early days, MVCC adjusted its program to fit the needs of the local industry, allowing students to have a significant and direct impact in the area. The textile program gives students the ability to help solve some of the problems that plague mill in the Northeast. As they begin to close and electric/metal companies begin to move, the MVCC changes its curriculum to adapt. MVCC is able to train students to perform in a variety of manufacturing activities ranging from drafting and design to quality control. The courses also help them develop the required manual skills in the industry.
The second site opened in 1948 in the former Utica Cotton Cooling Plant and is housed in programs in the fields of mechanical, electrical, and textile technology.
The Institute became part of the State University System in 1950 and its name was changed to University of State Applied Art & amp; Science in Utica.
In 1952, the State developed a 'community college plan' in which institutions could remain open only if the local sponsor took responsibility for them and they converted to college. Under the plan, the State no longer provides 100 percent of funding, but reduces its operational support to one-third, with the rest coming from local sponsors and tuition fees. Capital support is reduced by 50 percent with local sponsors responsible for the other half.
This creates some challenges for the Utica Institute because most students come from other parts of New York. The problem is solved by a compromise compromise system in which another country whose students study at one of the universities will pay the chargeback fee to the institution. It remains the basis of college funding in New York State today.
In 1953, the Institute became the Mohawk Valley Technical Institute, a college sponsored by Oneida County. Albert Payne was appointed as the first chief administrator of the Institute with the title of President.
Over the next decade, the number and variety of learning programs continues to grow, including some in the non-technical field. The institute changed its name to Mohawk Valley Community College in 1963 to reflect this change of emphasis.
In 1978, MVCC generated over $ 34 million in business volume annually in Oneida County, and provided the equivalent of 2,249 full-time jobs.
The main campus at Sherman Drive opened in 1960 and was designed by renowned architect Edward Durell Stone, whose world-class project includes Radio City Music Hall and Museum of Modern Art in New York City. Initial construction includes Academic Building, Physical Education Building and College Center. All have been extensively renovated and expanded over the years.
MVCC built four first residence halls in 1966 - making it the first community college in New York with on-campus housing - and added a fifth in 2005. Other buildings were added, including Payne Hall in 1969, a science and technology building in 1989 , and Information Technology/Performing Arts/Conference Center in 2001.
In 2011, 112,000 square foot Athletic/Events Center Robert R. Jorgensen opened on the Utica campus. The facility is named in honor of the old Athletic Director and Professor Emeritus. The hotel has a 6,000 square foot Fitness Center, a Field Building with a capacity to accommodate 3,000 people, and many other facilities including three basketball/volleyball/tennis courts and ten-kilometer indoor tracks.
In 2011, Economic Modeling Specialists, Inc. completing the report, "Economic Contribution Mohawk Valley Community College: Analysis of Investment Effectiveness and Economic Growth," which shows that MVCC's net contribution to regional revenue is $ 31.5 million through college operations, $ 18.6 million through "student expenditure effects, "and $ 171.3 million through" student productivity effects "
Roma
At the request of the Air Force, the MVCC began teaching at Griffiss Air Base in Rome in the early 1950s. Several classes are held at the base, others are in Staley Secondary School. This branch of Rome campus was opened in 1974 in part of Oneida County Hospital on Floyd Ave., which became known as the Academic Building. The Plumley complex was added to the Rome campus in 1991 to honor Oneida County Executive John D. Plumley, the main supporter of MVCC who operates the campus in Rome.
By 2017, a $ 30 million renovation has been completed in collaboration with Oneida County and New York State. During this renovation, the existing Academic Building was destroyed, the existing Plumley Complex expanded by 48,000 square feet with wings on both sides, a new Support Building was added for the Facility, and repairs were made to parking lots and quads.
Interior renovation includes updating classrooms with modern equipment to allow for the expansion of educational interpretations, surgical technicians, unmanned air systems, cybersecurity, and STEM programs; combining the Library and Learning Center into Learning Commons, which has four group learning rooms, conference rooms, computer labs, mathematics and writing labs, testing centers, and guidance centers; adding a dining room, and updating the kitchen and cooking laboratories into sophisticated hospitality programs; and adds a 120-person community event space.
There are 10 degree programs and four fully completed certificate programs at the Rome Campus, including Roma-only courses such as Culinary Arts Management (A.O.S.), Hotel Technology (A.A.S), and Surgical Technology (Certificate).
Other programs operating in Rome, N.Y., include Airframe and Powerplant Technology and Dental hygiene programs between MVCC and the State University of New York in Canton.
The Airframe and Powerplant certification program MVCC Technology was started in 2006 at Griffiss Business and Technology Park in Rome, and is the only college-based flight maintenance program in New York and one of only a few one-year programs in the country. Students in this program receive hands-on training at the Aviation Training Center in Rome, and can work on the MVCC's operational fleet, including the Boeing 727-100, 2 Gulfstream GII, Bombardier Challenger 600, Cessna 310, Piper PA- 140, OH-58 Helicopter, and various additional airframes as well as General Electric, Pratt & amp; Whitney, and Allison/Rolls Royce jet engines, Lycoming and Continental reciprocating engines, as well as other aircraft equipment and simulators

The MVCC Chapter participates in various service projects throughout the year with members contributing hundreds of hours to College and local communities
Diversity and Global View (DGV)
In order to graduate, all students who wish to earn a degree and a certificate must meet the requirements of Diversity and Global View. This requirement is critical to MVCC's commitment to raising students' awareness of an increasingly diverse global environment. To meet these requirements, students must take courses set by DGV, attend events determined by DGV, and complete online tutorials. Many College events in the Cultural Events Series have DGV designations
Reaching Dream
In 2014, MVCC joins Achieving the Dream (ATD), the first college in the SUNY system to do so, as a commitment to improving student success, especially color students and low-income students. At that time, there is a six-step process that includes the following:
- Commit to institutional change and improvement.
- Use dates to identify gap in achievements, assets, and barriers relevant to student success and to prioritize action steps.
- Design and policy practices to influence student success.
- Implement, evaluate, and improve practices and policies that affect student success.
- Fails quickly and switches if evaluation indicates that the results are not promising.
- Retain, continue to improve, and validate practices and policies that have promising results.
Two teams were identified to lead this effort - Core Team and Data Team. Over the next three years, Universities undertook many new practices in cohort-based models that impact on graduation rates that increase them 10 percent from 2010 (21 percent) to 31 percent by 2013.
In the autumn of 2018, the ATD team was transformed into the Student Council of Success and Board for an College-wide Lite Analytics Initiative

CCED
The Center for Corporate and Community Education was originally established in 1998. Under the direction of President Michael I. Schafer, the MVCC incorporated the departments of "Community Education" and "Corporate Programs" and established the Center for Community and Economic Development (CCED), later transformed into Corporate & amp; Community Education. The first executive director was Don Reese (1998-2004).
CCED is the leading provider of non-credit education and community education programs, not only in Oneida County but throughout the Mohawk Valley area of ​​Central New York. During the first few years, CCED formed partnerships with national companies such as CSX Railroad and Sage, Inc. With CSX, the College developed a comprehensive program to train rail transport conductors. The MVCC partnership with Sage, Inc., leads to the development of the largest tractor-trailer driving program in the Mohawk Valley. An additional partnership, in collaboration with the MVCC academic department, led to the development of an aircraft mechanics program at the former Griffiss Airbase. From 1998 to 2004, CCED developed the largest insurance training program in the Mohawk Valley.
At the same time, non-credit Community Education programs continue to grow. As the swim program and "College for Kids" are always successful, CCED adds motorcycle training through a partnership with "Go Motorcycling, Inc." Personal enrichment programs for adults, including art, dance, cooking, health and fitness, water sports, and foreign language programs, all thrive. With technological changes, internet arrivals, and laptops, CCED is leading the way in community education for computer users at every age. Professional development programs offered for adults include real estate training, security guard training, teacher training programs, and more. Non-credit health care training programs are also growing due to the increasing labor market.
CCED continues to partner with various companies and service providers to offer educational opportunities on-demand for community members of all ages, both on and off campus.
iServe Mohawk Valley
In 2015, the College receives a grant from the New York Children's and Family Service Office to begin a volunteer program focused on combating hunger and food insecurity in Rome. Community partners are signed to be iServe volunteer recipients, including Rome Rescue Mission, Ava Dorfman Senior Center, Salvation Army, and Loaves and Fishes Browsing Center. Volunteers are recruited from student body, faculty, staff, and community.
During the first year of the program, 15 volunteers help prepare, cook, and serve food on partner sites, clean and arrange pantry racks, and deliver food to the residence. Since then, the volunteer base has swelled to more than 400, and now there are seven partner sites. In addition to work done with the Roma Partner site, iServe now supplies food and volunteers to two utensils at Utica: West Side Soup Kitchen Ms. Marianne and Soup Kitchen Safety Salvation Army.
Signature programs developed in the second year also include:
- The Food Recovery Network, where, together with the Sodexo Dining Service, prepared food but was not served "rescued" from the Resident Dining Hall. The recipients are Mother Marianne's West Side Kitchen and The Salvation Army Soup Kitchen, both in Utica. This two-pronged effort helps our campus with sustainability while feeding hungry people in our community.
- Fresh Food Rewards are programs where foods that have reached "Sell-by" but not "Expired" dates are collected from grocery stores and sent to the Rome Campus for monthly distribution to those in need.
- Campus Cupboard is a food pantry for students, born of an innovation grant, where students can receive snacks, meals, take-out food, cleaning products, school supplies, and interview clothes.
In the third year of the program, the arranged garden beds are set up on the Campus of Rome with the help of Mohawk Valley YouthBuild, who built the bed, and College Works, whose students volunteer to water and care for the garden.
