March 11, 2014 - Leaders Commemorate Opening of New Universal Technical Institute Campus

Nearly 250 local business, civic, educational, elected officials and industry executives celebrated the grand opening of Universal Technical Institute’s new, state-of-the-industry campus in Lisle during a festive evening ceremony.

The event featured remarks from elected officials, a student alumnus, an industry partner and company executives. All speakers highlighted the strong and growing demand for jobs in the industry. They also emphasized UTI’s unparalleled ability to prepare individuals to master the technical skills required to succeed in these jobs.

“We work hard to be the industry’s choice and it means a lot to us that so many employer and manufacturer partners joined us to celebrate the opening of our new Midwest campus,” said Julie Mueller, campus president of UTI-Lisle. “No other institution has more graduates working in the field than UTI and that is because we are continually adapting to the needs of our industry customers. Our new Lisle home will help us continue to provide the highest quality educational experience that helps students attain the skills to be successful in their careers.”

Guests had the opportunity to hear from one of these students first hand.

“I have a great job at Tesla Motors because of the skills and training I received at UTI. Since graduation, I work for one of the world’s most watched companies, doing what I truly love,” said Stojan Ozegovic, a UTI alumnus and guest speaker during the event. “I’ve been working there nearly six months now and when I look back I know I entered this job well-prepared with the skills I needed to be successful. I owe it all to my decision to enroll and study hard at UTI.”

After the ceremony, guests were invited to tour the new 187,000-square-foot facility.
