Westwood College

Westwood College has offered career-oriented technical education since the mid-fifties. Originally known as the Denver Institute of Technology, the college has grown, and now has campuses in California, Illinois, Colorado, Texas, Virginia, and Georgia. The college offers accelerated Associate and Bachelor degree programs that can be completed in as little as 17 months. Classes are offered during the days, in the evenings, and on the weekends.

Westwood offers more than just hands-on training. Each campus has a career center where students can attend employer recruiting events, and get advice on job search strategies, resume creation, and interviewing. Alumni can update their skills at any time by taking classes in the program they graduated in, with no additional charge, except for books and materials. Not every degree program is offered at every campus.
