From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
ITT Technical Institute (often shortened to ITT Tech) is a private, for-profit, nationally accredited technical institute with over 85 campuses in over 30 states of the United States. It was founded in 1946 as Educational Services, Inc. and has been headquartered in Carmel, Indiana, since 1969. ITT Tech accreditation is managed by the Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools.

[edit] Courses of study
ITT Tech offers programs specialized in information technology, electronics, drafting and design, criminal justice and business administration.
Students of ITT Tech may pursue Associates, Bachelors, or Masters (business-only) degrees. Graduates might be specialized in architectural design, multimedia, programming, engineering and information technology.
[edit] ITT, the business
From 1966 until its IPO in 1994, ITT Tech was a wholly owned subsidiary of ITT Corporation (as "ITT/ESI"). By 1999, ITT Corp. (which had merged with Starwood the year before) divested itself completely of ITT Tech's shares but the schools still use the "ITT" name under license.[1] The initials originally stood for "International Telephone and Telegraph."
[edit] Controversy
ITT Tech was under federal investigation in 2004. No charges were filed, and Michael Shelby, whose office was the one conducting the investigation, stressed that "no conclusions should be drawn from today's activity" [2]. Nevertheless, the investigation negatively affected the company's stock. [3]
