This museum was created in 1989 as a history and archeology museum, with an interpretive region encompassing the Arkansas River Valley of western Arkansas, with particular emphasis on the history of the University and the immediate counties of Pope, Yell, and Johnson. In 2008, as the University's Centennial approached, the Museum mission and interpretive program was narrowed to interpreting the establishment and history of Arkansas Tech University and the stories of the people and partners that comprise that history. The Museum also began formal development of Tech History Archival and Tech History Memorabilia collections. Museum staff have since 2008 worked closely with University Administration to develop exhibits about this history as part of the University Centennial Project.
