Troy University at Montgomery

Troy University at Montgomery

Troy University at Montgomery is a satellite campus of Troy University and is located in Montgomery, Alabama.

Emerging in the 1950s to support the United States Military, as extension courses were offered on nearby bases, first at Fort Rucker, near Dothan; and later at Maxwell Air Force Base in Montgomery. A separate Troy State College teaching center was established at Fort Rucker in 1961, which evolved into the present-day Dothan Campus. A similar center, begun at Maxwell Air Force Base in 1965, led to the creation of the present-day Montgomery Campus.

In 1982, the Troy State University System was formed, as the campuses in Dothan and Montgomery were granted independent accreditation status. In April 2004 the Board of Trustees voted to drop "State" from the University's name to better reflect the institution's worldwide mission. After August 2005, all TROY campuses were unified under one accreditation.
