BCC’s 1st PresidentThe Cecil C. Tyrrell Award – photo
from the 1949 college year book "The Citadel“. In April, 1946, the New York Legislature passed a bill providing for an Institute of Applied Arts and Sciences to be founded in Binghamton. The problem of securing the right person, qualified to direct its material, as well as its academic development, was the first task in forming the institute. After four months of search, Mr. Cecil C. Tyrrell was selected as Director of the Institute.

The Computer Science program leads to an Associate in Science degree and prepares students for transfer to a four year college or university. Working with computers provides opportunities that are plentiful and rewarding.
Dr Leopold Eckler Award
Awarded to an outstanding student.
Dr Eckler made many generous gifts to BCC during his lifetime, including the gift of a grand piano and the College carillon, which still tones the hour on campus.
Perhaps his greatest gift was the Scholarship Trust he created under his will, to benefit “worthy young men and women in the continuation of their higher education.”
