1990s – present

Presence: Trine University of Angola — founded 1884 as Tri-State Normal College, renamed for alumnus Ralph Trine in 2008 — ran a College of Graduate and Professional Studies education center in Fort Wayne (9910 Dupont Circle Dr E) from its 1990s satellite era; those center programs were later moved online.

Course: Trine's substantial Fort Wayne presence is in the health professions. Its College of Health Professions began on Parkview Health's Randallia campus with a single program, the Doctor of Physical Therapy, and grew to about 250 students there. In the fall of 2024 it moved into the new 40-million-dollar Trine University Fort Wayne campus — the Brooks College of Health Professions, at 12817 Parkview Plaza Dr near Parkview Regional Medical Center — built in partnership with Parkview Health for about 700 students in physical therapy, physician assistant studies, speech-language pathology, nursing and surgical technology.
