Polk State College | Diversity Employer
Polk State College, the first public higher education institution in Polk County, opened its doors in 1964, at a former World War II Army Air Force Base in Bartow.
During its first semester of operation, the College served nearly 1,200 students —twice the number expected — and it has continued to grow ever since.
In 1966, ground was broken for Polk State’s first permanent campus, Polk State Winter Haven, located on the shores of Lake Elbert. Within a decade, the campus had expanded to include numerous buildings, accommodating a growing student body and increased program offerings.
We are excited that you are interested in Polk State College. The Human Resources team is committed to providing high quality, comprehensive human resources services to the College’s administration, faculty, and staff. We comply with all federal and state employment laws.
