Bluefield,
West Virginia

As an historically
black, open admissions institution, Bluefield State College prepares
students for challenging careers, graduate study, informed citizenship,
community involvement, and public service in an ever-changing
global society.
To accomplish
its mission, Bluefield State College offers undergraduate liberal
arts and professional programs in applied sciences, business,
education, humanities, social sciences, engineering technologies,
and allied health sciences leading to baccalaureate and associate
degrees, the nontraditional Regents Bachelor of Arts degree, and
continuing education opportunities.
Bluefield
State College was established as a black teachers college by an
act of the West Virginia Legislature in 1895 and was integrated
after 1954. By the 1960's the College had a comprehensive four-year
program of teacher education, arts and sciences, and engineering
technology. Gradually a variety of two-year technical programs
evolved in response to local needs.
Bluefield
State College has emerged as a four-year state supported commuter
college serving south-eastern West Virginia with a primary thrust
in the direction of career and technical two and four year programs.
The liberal arts offerings of the College are focused to enhance
its unique mission.
The College offers
baccalaureate and associate degrees. Instructional programs are
offered in engineering technologies, business, teacher education,
arts and sciences, nursing and health science professions, and
a variety of career fields. Students may also complete the non-traditional
Regents Bachelor of Arts degree through Bluefield State College.
The College works closely with area two-year colleges in developing
two-plus-two degree opportunities for selected baccalaureate level
programs whereby the two years completed for an associate degree
are applicable toward the baccalaureate degree. Bluefield State
College offers a wide variety of courses off campus and through
distance.
