History

The college was established by the priests of the Society of Foreign Missions (P.M.E.) in June 1948 as a high school institution. In 1958, the Sisters of the Presentation of Mary, a Catholic religious women's congregation, took over the management of the school from the priests of the Society of Foreign Missions (P.M.E.). With the rapid growth of the school population the Sisters of the Presentation of Mary opened the college department in 1964, and offered the four-year course in Education, Liberal Arts and Commerce with an initial enrolment of 68 students.[2][3]
In 1967-1968, the first college enrolees were ready to graduate from the four-year course in the college department. There were a total of 37 graduates for that year.[4]
In 1989-1900, the HCCC added Nursing Aide for protection, General Electronics, and Practical Electricity.[5]
