History

Fife College was created on 1 August 2013 as a merger of Adam Smith College, Carnegie College and non land based elements of the Elmwood Campus of the rural college SRUC. When the merger was announced in March of that year the new principal was named as Hugh Logan, formerly principal of Motherwell College. Following the retirement of Hugh Logan, Hugh Hall was appointed as principal, taking office on 1 March 2017. After six years in the role, Hugh Hall stood down to be replaced, in April 2023, by Jim Metcalfe, former Chief Executive at College Development Network.

In March 2016, the college announced that it had secured the option to purchase land at former Hyundai site in Dunfermline. The college plans to build a new campus on the site, which is expected to cost up to £130Шаблон:Nbspmillion, with the new campus due to be open by the summer of 2025.
