Why New Jersey?

So why did UTI decide to open a campus in Bloomfield? Just like in many other places, the demand for skilled technicians is high in New Jersey. The city is full of opportunities, and opening a campus in Bloomfield has benefited both students and employers in the area.

Located conveniently off Exit 151 of the Garden State Parkway, this campus is in a prime location that many students are able to easily commute to. It is also located in the backyard of many of the original equipment manufacturers (OEM) the school partners with. Having headquarters of leading manufacturers close by means more opportunities for students.

Bloomfield has a small-town feel, yet is also located close to major hubs like New York City, which is about a 25-minute trip away by train. It’s the best of both worlds! We could go on and on about all there is to do in the New York, but you just might have to visit for yourself.
