Samar State University was established as Samar Trade School in 1912, serving as the laboratory shop of the Samar Provincial High School. It was later converted into a independent secondary trade school, and had its first graduation exercise in 1932. On June 21, 1959, by virtue of Republic Act No.2435, the school was converted to Samar School of Arts and Trades (SSAT), offering a two-year technical curriculum in various vocational areas. It subsequently was given the authority to offer a four-year teacher-education curriculum, Bachelor of Science in Industrial Education (BSIE) and a four-year technical education curriculum, Bachelor of Science in Industrial Technology (BSIT).
