History

Davao Doctors College (DDC), [3] formerly known as the Davao Doctors Hospital School of Nursing (DDHSN), was the brainchild of a group of medical doctors in response to the increasing demand for nurses in Davao Doctors Hospital.

DDC was originally housed within the hospital premises and offered only the three-year Basic Course in Nursing leading to graduate nurse. There were 52 students in the first batch of enrollees, 32 of whom eventually graduated. One hundred percent of the batch passed the Nurse Licensure Exam [4] in 1978.

In 1979, DDHSN expanded its curricular offerings. The Graduate Nurse Program was upgraded to a Bachelor of Science in nursing. Bachelor of Science in biology and pre-dentistry opened in the same year.
