Brown College is a for-profit technical college in Mendota Heights, Minnesota, part of the Twin Cities region. The college was founded in 1946 by Richard and Helen Brown. They started the broadcasting school as the American Institute of the Air in Minneapolis. In 1954 it became known as Brown Institute when courses in a variety of other fields including electronics and computers were added. The two founders retired in 1978, and the school changed its name in 2001. In 1997, after spending many years located on Lake Street in Minneapolis, Brown Institute moved to a new, larger location in Mendota Heights to accommodate future growth. In recent years, a second campus was opened in Brooklyn Center, a suburb on the opposite side of the Twin Cities metro area.
