PHOENIX and DALLAS, Oct. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Universal Technical Institute, Inc., a national leader in workforce education programs, continues to successfully execute its North Star strategy to address America's skilled labor shortage.

The Dallas campus, which opened in 2010, currently serves nearly 1,400 students and offers programs in Automotive Technology; Diesel and Industrial Technology; and Welding Technology.
"There is incredible demand for workforce training programs—employers are seeking to quickly fill their talent pipelines, while more students are considering alternatives to traditional college that offer meaningful careers," said Todd Hitchcock, Corporate Chief Operating Officer, Universal Technical Institute, Inc. "We are addressing the nation's worker shortages by partnering with industry to increase access to our programs that are widely recognized for their strong student outcomes and employer satisfaction."
Universal Technical Institute's multi-year North Star strategy includes the core tenets of growth, diversification and optimization. The company has committed to opening two new campuses annually between 2026 and 2029; launching new programs at existing campus locations; and enhancing its operations to make the most efficient use of resources.
The expanded UTI-Dallas will feature a second building near the current campus in Irving. The new, state-of-the-art, 30,000-square-foot facility is expected to open in early 2026 at 1350 Lakeshore Drive in Coppel.
