- Lamar Institute of Technology
Lamar Institute of Technology (LIT) is a public technical school in Beaumont, Texas. LIT was formerly a part of Lamar University, but became a separate institution when the university joined the Texas State University System in 1995.
History
LIT began in 1946 as the "Division of Vocations" within what was then Lamar College. The division became the Lamar School of Vocations in 1955. In 1971, the division began awarding associate's degrees, and the next year became the College of Technical Arts within Lamar University, which had achieved full university status.
In 1990, all of Lamar University's two-year programs were combined into the Lamar University Institute of Technology. When Lamar University was absorbed into the Texas State University System, the Institute of Technology was separated. In 1999, the school was renamed Lamar Institute of Technology by the Texas Legislature.
