The establishment of Saint Joseph Institute of Technology is a dream and vision fulfilled. The institute is a product of a remarkable and splendid dream of a young and enterprising man of Candijay Bohol whose preoccupation and primary interest in life was driven by reaching out the youth through education as the key that opens the door towards progress and quality of life to the least of the pe...ople in Butuan City and its neighboring provinces. The young man who founded the school and became the first president was Dr. Nicomedes A. Salas.
SJIT, from humble beginning, out of scarcity started in 1971 in a rented two-storey building, made of wood, equipped with old few typewriters and old sewing machines that Dr. Nicomedes out of small savings bought in Surigao City. Included was a set of basic furniture for a classroom which became the learning hub of the first 130 students enrolled in two semesters for vocational/technical skills working a faculty complement of (3) three who could start the tinkering and learning of basic livelihood skills.
With a span of a decade from its small beginnings, SJIT has expanded tremendously with an increasing trend of enrolment, courses offered and the construction of five-storey and six-storey buildings equipped with the latest state of the art facilities, equipment, instructional technologies and laboratories and fully air-conditioned classrooms. Concomitant to this change "from scarce beginnings to sustainable growth, " SJIT has expanded its infrastructure to what is now one of the most imposing and impressive schools in the region. The program offerings were remarkable that they expanded from just the vocational-technical skills based to professional - technical courses to include among other the marine engineering, marine transportation, engineering and architecture, information technology, nursing, business and management and criminology as well as humanities and arts and sciences and education.
