On February 1995, a private individual representing a private company discussed with the think tank of RSC on the possibility of bringing computer technology into RSC. The matter was discussed vigorously and was presented to the right authorities and was approved.

Summer of the same year, the faculty of RSC that numbers to around to 60 undergo extensive training of computer application which is a part of Build-Operate Transfer Scheme. First semester of the same year the Computer Operations and Programming Program was offered. After a year the Degree Program Bachelor of Science in Information Technology was formally offered whose specialization is in Information and Computer Technology.

During the second semester of school year 2001-2002, President Idella G. Formilleza issued an Executive Order separating Information Technology Center from the Institute of Engineering and Technology and creating it as an independent unit directly under the office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs.

On October 2005, President Jeter S. Sespeñe who succeeded President Idella G. Formilleza implemented the rationalization of Institute and the IICT was merged to the Institute of Engineering and Technology and created a new unit, the Information Technology Center (ITC). The unit was directly under the supervision of the Office of the President and headed by a Director.
