Old Dominion University began its tradition of excellence when it was founded in 1930 by the College of William and Mary, the second oldest university in the United States. Established as an extension of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia, and Virginia Polytechnic Institute in Blacksburg, Virginia, Old Dominion began educating teachers and engineers. The two-year school rapidly evolved into a four-year institution, and was granted independence in 1962 as Old Dominion College.Considerable growth in enrollment, the expansion of research facilities and preparation for the addition of graduate programs led the Board of Visitors to approve the name change to Old Dominion University. Now Old Dominion is a powerhouse for higher education with six colleges - Arts and Letters, Business, Education and Professional Studies, Engineering and Technology, Health Sciences, and Sciences, and the School of Cybersecurity. Planning is underway to establish a School of Data Science and a School of Supply Chain, Logistics, and Maritime Operations. Old Dominion has offered master’s degrees since 1964 and Ph.D.s since 1971. Students currently choose from 111 baccalaureate programs, 43 master’s programs, two education specialist programs and 22 doctoral programs. The University has earned the Research 1 Classification indicating "very high research activity" from the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education.Proud of its past, Old Dominion constantly looks to the future and prides itself on its continually expanding research and teaching programs.
