United Tribes Technical College (UTTC) is aimed to provide American Indians with postsecondary and technical education in a culturally diverse environment that will provide self-determination and economic development for all tribal nations. The United Tribes Technical College is a unique inter-Tribally controlled institution of education. It is located on a 237-acre campus three miles south of Bismarck, North Dakota.

United Tribes Technical College was founded in 1969 by an intertribal organization, the United Tribes of North Dakota Development Corporation. It is a nonprofit corporation, operated by the five tribes - the Three Affiliated Tribes, the Spirit Lake Tribe, the Sisseton Wahpeton Oyate, the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe and the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians. The College is headed by a ten-member board of directors that consists of the chairperson and one delegate chosen from each of the tribes.

The College creates a community where Indian people can obtain an education. Programs which are offered here have kept this initial goal in mind, providing not only occupational education and training but also individual and social skills in a culturally-relevant setting, with an accent on children and families.
