Southwest Technical College: Dual Enrollment Program

Southern Utah University (SUU) and Southwest Technical College (STECH) have created a Dual Enrollment Program which allows students from each institution to benefit from the educational offerings of both institutions. Course equivalencies have been identified through a series of articulation agreements so that students can combine coursework from both institutions to reach their educational goals. A complete list of up-to-date course equivalencies can be found at www.suu.edu/stech/equivalency.html.

Because the agreement allows for SUU students to enroll at STECH and receive SUU credit, students will now have access to a broad spectrum of courses and programs that are currently unavailable for university credit. Areas of study such as welding, culinary arts, automotive technology, and others that are not taught at SUU can now be taken for SUU credit. Students might choose to take one or more of these courses as an elective for their major, or they might choose to pursue an STECH certificate alongside their SUU diploma.

Likewise, STECH students can enroll in a certificate program at STECH, opt-in to the Dual Enrollment program, and earn university credit at SUU for articulated courses completed at STECH. This allows students to pursue an STECH certificate and earn university credit at more affordable rates.
