It traces its roots to 1872 as Williamston Female College in Williamston, moved to Greenwood in 1904, and was renamed for its founder Samuel Lander; it joined the state higher education system in 1973. The university serves roughly 3,000 students from 29 states and 17 foreign countries, with on-campus housing for about 1,100. It maintains a student-faculty ratio of 17:1 and a full-time faculty cohort of about 138, with most instructors holding terminal degrees and typical class sizes around 22. More than 60 undergraduate programs are offered, along with several master's degrees, and five programs are available entirely online, including RN-to-BSN, a criminal justice management bachelor’s degree, a health care management certificate, and two online graduate programs in emergency management and nursing. In 2026, Lander announced a new transfer partnership with Trident Technical College to advance paralegal studies, reflecting ongoing collaboration with regional educational institutions.
