- Overview
When the high school opened in 1934, the school assumed the name “Immaculate Conception Academy” and by 1938, the first batch of high school students graduated. By then, the school had been re-named “Immaculate Conception Institute”. [1]
As World War II broke out in 1941, the school closed and was re-opened five years later. The school received government recognition for the high school level in 1947. A year later, the school was named “Immaculate Conception College (ICC)” which then offered initial two collegiate courses namely: Collegiate Secretarial and Pharmacy. [1]
Between 1951 and 1958, Immaculate Conception College (ICC) opened additional courses: BS in Education, BS in Home Economics, BS in Music, and BS in Elementary Education. [1]
With the increasing enrollment and the demand for more courses, the following programs were added in 1961-62, namely: The Liberal Arts Program, BS Commerce, and BS Medical Technology. [1]
In 1969, the Grade and High School Departments were moved to ICC’s new site at Fr. Selga St. and followed by the College Department in 1971. Three more courses were then added namely: BS Chemistry, Pharmacy Aide, and BS in Nutrition and Dietetics. [1]
In 1983-1986, four more courses were opened: Cafeteria Management, BS in Civil Engineering, MA in Theology, and MA in Elementary Education. It was in the nineties (90’s) when Immaculate Conception College (ICC) was challenged to become more responsive to the needs of Davao that more scientific and technological courses were opened, namely; BS Computer Engineering, BS Electronics and Communication Engineering, and BS Computer Science. [1]
The graduate school picked up its pace and added more courses especially when Fund Assistance for Private Education (FAPE) identified ICC as one of the training centers of its scholars for Chemistry, Physics, and Engineering. The additional courses opened were: MA in Educational Management, MA in Values Education, MA in Teaching College Physics, MA in Teaching College Chemistry, and MA in Engineering Education. [1]
It was on May 1, 1992 when DECS Secretary Dr. Isidro Carino granted ICC the University Status. It took the name “University of the Immaculate Conception”. The school was then 87 years old. [1]
