NEI College of Technology

NEI College of Technology was a technical college in Columbia Heights, a suburb of Minneapolis, specializing in electronics, and computer and information technology. It was founded in 1930 by George W. Young (founder of WDGY radio) as a school for radio repair. In 1967 it was renamed the Northwest Electronics Institute. In 1982 it moved to its location in Columbia Heights, the former Columbia Heights High School, and was renamed NEI College of Technology.
It merged with Dunwoody Institute in Minneapolis to form the Dunwoody College of Technology in June 2003, at which point it moved all operations to the Dunwoody campus. The time of the merger, NEI had 500 students and Dunwoody had 1200 full-time and 2700 part-time students. The former campus, which consisted of one building, was purchased by the city of Columbia Heights in February 2004 and demolished in November 2004.
An "NEI Center" was established initially at Dunwoody to house the former NEI programs, but the two institutions have fully merged. Dunwoody maintains alumni connections for NEI, including annual gatherings.
