Parker Intermediate College (also known as Parker Inter College or just Parker) is a historical college in the city of Moradabad, Uttar Pradesh, India. It was founded in the year 1865-1866. This institution got its name from Vermont-born Edwin Wallace Parker, an American Methodist mniister who eventually became Methodist missionary bishop of southern Asia.
It initially started in the old church area of the Town Hall of Moradabad. In the year 1920, the college was shifted to its present building. The land for the present building was donated by a family of zamindars, specifically for educational purpose. The families included the Kunwar family of Singh Bhawan of Chowk Tarikhana.
Parker Intermediate College follows the U.P. Board curriculum. It started as a High School and later on was upgraded to Intermediate College in 1940 ies.
Parker College celebrated its centennial in year 1965-66.
Parker has been known for its high standards of education. In December 2017, a State Level Science Exhibition was organised by the State Council of Educational Research and Training, Delhi (SCERT).[1]
