The Utah College of Applied Technology is a new concept in applied technology education, consisting of nine applied technology college campuses located throughout Utah. It provides opportunities for high quality statewide open-entry, open-exit, competency-based education. The campuses serve both high school and adult students.

The nine applied technology college campuses are: Bridgerland, Davis, Dixie, Mountainland, Ogden-Weber, Salt Lake/Tooele, Southeast, Southwest, and Uintah Basin.

The UCAT Applied Technology College Campuses offer Associate of Applied Technology (AAT) degrees and a broad range of long-term and short-term certificate training, within a college environment.

UCAT, through the college campuses, is responsible for providing post-secondary and extra-secondary applied technology education that results in appropriate licensing, certification, or skill training to qualify students for specific employment in business and industry. High school students attending an applied technology college campus enroll tuition-free, and tuition for adults is minimal. Students may register at any time during regular business hours and receive instruction in a self-paced format. The flexible schedule is ideal for working adults with limited time and for high school students desiring to supplement their high school schedule.

The certificate programs include, but are not limited to, diesel mechanics, precision machine tooling, practical nursing, cosmetology, computer-aided drafting, dental assistance, welding, computer use and programming, and construction trades. There are also several other programs and customized employee training under the Utah Custom Fit program.

Three Associate of Applied Technology (AAT) degrees have been approved by the UCAT Board of Trustees and the Utah State Board of Regents: Computer Aided Design and Drafting (CADD), Information Technology (IT) and Medical Assisting.
