Institutional Profile

Since its establishment in 2000, the College of Science, Technology and Applied Arts of Trinidad and Tobago (COSTAATT), has distinguished itself in the tertiary education landscape as a progressive, relevant and innovative institution, maintaining high standards of academic excellence, and offering a wide range of specialised, technical and academic programmes at degree, diploma and certificate levels. The College has also created history by becoming the first institution in Trinidad and Tobago to be granted accredited status with the Accreditation Council of Trinidad and Tobago (ACTT), and moreover, for the maximum period of seven (7) years. In less than a decade, COSTAATT, through its pioneering initiatives in curriculum design and delivery, as well as its commitment to providing education opportunities for the traditionally underserved, has led the way in the transformation and diversification of the national tertiary education sector. Increasingly viewed as a first option to prospective students, the College has a current enrollment of more than 11,600 students, with eight (8) existing campuses and learning centres in communities throughout Trinidad and Tobago with immediate plans for expansion in areas such as El Dorado and Chaguanas. The College has become a major catalyst for new thinking in tertiary education and its relevance to workforce development, as COSTAATT’s graduates are recognised by both public and private sector employers as work ready, knowledgeable and competent.
