WHY CHOOSE UTI?

YOU DON'T DO THINGS THE TRADITIONAL WAY, AND YOUR EDUCATION SHOULD BE NO DIFFERENT

At Universal Technical Institute, our programs are designed for those looking for an interactive learning experience and an accelerated path to prepare for their careers.¹

Choosing to invest in your education is a decision you can make today that can help lead to a brighter future. Here are a few reasons to choose UTI.

LEARN IN A HANDS-ON ENVIRONMENT

UTI is for the hands-on learner. From day one, you’ll be working on projects as you prepare for an exciting career as a technician. Students have the opportunity to practice what they learn in a lab environment that simulates what they can experience in the field, working with industry tools and technology.

FOCUSED & ACCELERATED LEARNING

With UTI, you can start your journey to prepare for a career without waiting for next semester, with programs starting every three to six weeks. Our curriculum is designed to equip students with the knowledge and real-world experience they need to pursue careers as soon as they graduate.

We focus on what the industry says matters most. Whether it’s automotive, diesel, motorcycle, marine, welding technology, collision repair or CNC machining, our programs teach the foundational skills employers look for when hiring their technicians. Some of our programs even take less than a year to complete.

MENTORS, NOT JUST INSTRUCTORS

Mentorship plays an important role in all of our programs at UTI. Students benefit by learning from professionals who are passionate, experienced, and available to provide support and guidance every step of the way.

REAL-WORLD EXPERIENCE

Our instructors bring real-world experience to the classroom and take pride in going above and beyond to invest in their students and prepare them for their careers. Some of our instructors were once UTI students themselves!

LEARN IN-DEMAND SKILLS FOR AN EXCITING FIELD

The future is expected to be bright for technicians. Jobs are growing in the skilled trades, and our programs can prepare students to succeed in up-and-coming careers, including those in STEM.

By taking a STEM approach to learning, we incorporate important skills in science, technology, engineering and math. Students learn by doing through hands-on training, using quality tools, technology and resources to prepare for a career in the industry.

There is a high demand for technicians, especially those with skills based in STEM. As a UTI student, you’ll learn the new technologies that can help you pursue the new opportunities.

INDUSTRY CONNECTIONS

UTI has relationships with original equipment manufacturers, employers and aftermarket companies. These relationships give students access to industry tools and technology while they complete their programs, as well as the opportunity to connect with companies that are hiring technicians for entry-level positions.

MANUFACTURER-SPECIFIC TRAINING

After completing your program, you may decide to continue on and complete a specialized training program.¹¹ Developed alongside leading manufacturers, the curriculum in these programs is designed to give students in-demand skills.

EMPLOYER RELATIONSHIPS

UTI students benefit from our relationships with dealerships, distributors and manufacturers. These relationships give students access to a nationwide network of companies willing to consider hiring our grads when opportunities arise.

INDUSTRY TOOLS & TECHNOLOGY

UTI offers an experience that prepares students for career success. Every tool, part and piece of technology you see on campus mirrors what technicians use in their fields.

PREPARE FOR THE WORKFORCE IN LESS THAN A YEAR

Some of UTI’s programs can prepare you to become a technician in less than a year. From your very first day on campus until graduation, you’ll be gaining the knowledge and skills employers look for when hiring.

GET THE COMPETITIVE EDGE

In addition to learning the mechanics, UTI students develop as professionals. Our instructors have years of experience working in the field and take the time to train students in the skills needed to help them be successful, including leadership, teamwork and communication. Becoming a well-rounded technician can help give you a competitive edge as you enter today’s job market.
