Academics

Shelton State Community College in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, is a public two-year community college that offers open admission to any student wishing to either transfer to a four-year college or obtain the training needed to go directly into the workforce. Numerous majors are offered across both liberal arts and STEM curriculums, as well as the Fine Arts, and Health, Wellness, Food & Nutrition. The Health Services division offers degrees in nursing and applied sciences that can be used in respiratory therapy, work as a medical laboratory technician, and health information technology. Within its technical division, students are trained for a specific vocation or industry, including machine tool technology, salon and spa management, and business office management and technology. The college has multiple corporate partnerships and apprenticeships to train and channel students directly into a specific workforce within the region, including the Mercedes Benz Mechatronics Program (teaching students to help build automobiles at the Mercedes-Benz plant in Vance, Alabama), the Nucor Technical Academy (free tuition and room and board at one of the largest steelmaking companies), and the Hunt Refining Company Operations Co-Op Program (petroleum refinement). In service of the community, the Shelton State Community Education program offers short-term, non-credit courses to local adults who are looking to change career paths or further existing skills or knowledge.
