Universal Technical Institute (UTI) established a 45th anniversary commemorative scholarship program consisting of 45 $1,000 tuition
scholarships for students in need. The scholarship program was created to
celebrate UTI's 45th anniversary and help deserving students make their
dream of receiving a technical degree a reality.
UTI has provided more than four decades of education excellence for students
seeking careers as automotive, diesel, collision, motorcycle and marine
technicians. This summer UTI will also open a new campus in Dallas and
initiate the nationwide rollout of its industry-aligned training curriculum.
Since its inception in 1965, UTI has graduated over 120,000 professional
technicians at its 10 campuses located in Arizona, California, Florida,
Illinois, Massachusetts, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Texas.
"Our purpose is to change the world one life at a time by helping our
students achieve their dreams. We're proud that we've been fulfilling this
purpose for 45 years, and these scholarships are another example of this
commitment," said Kimberly McWaters, president and chief executive officer
of UTI. "We have achieved success and longevity by remaining focused on our
core business, developing manufacturer partnerships that strengthen our
training and placement, and creating a culture that nurtures our purpose. I
believe these things make UTI very unique and special."
UTI offers specialized technical education programs through four distinct
schools: Universal Technical Institute (UTI), Motorcycle Mechanics Institute
and Marine Mechanics Institute (MMI), and NASCAR Technical Institute (NASCAR
Tech). Students can earn occupational associate's degrees, diplomas and
certificate programs.
