About Brown College

Brown College is proud to celebrate 60 years of excellence and achievement.

In 1946, Richard and Helen Brown became pioneers in vocational education. They established the American Institute of the Air to train students for a career in broadcasting. The school’s name changed to Brown Institute in 1954, when courses in electronics, computer programming, and television production were added, and was renamed Brown College in 2001 reflecting further expansion of our program offerings.
