Case School of Applied Science was established in 1880 and moved to a location adjacent to Western Reserve in 1883. The name was changed to Case Institute of Technology in 1947. In 1967 Case Institute of Technology merged with Western Reserve University to form the present school. Chemical industry magnate Herbert H.
