ITE College West (ITE CW) (Formerly known as ITE West Network) is a division of the Institute of Technical Education. In 2010, a single campus was built in the Choa Chu Kang and replaced its five smaller network campuses as part of ITE's "One ITE System, Three Colleges" plan. The field of focus of College West is Precision Engineering, Automotive Technology and Chemical Process Technology.

Originally the campuses are located at Dover, Balestier, Ang Mo Kio, Bukit Batok and Clementi. The campus at Bukit Batok became SHATEC Building, Clementi was demolished, SUTD took over Dover Campus, Balestier Campus was demolished and Ang Mo Kio Campus became Ai Tong School. All have been demolished, however the ITE Headquarters was shifted to ITE College Central.

New campus at Choa Chu Kang[edit]

In July 2010, the new 9.54-hectare mega-campus opened, operating four schools - the School of Business and Services, School of Hospitality, School of Engineering and School of Info-Comm Technology. At this time, several of the network campuses were closed and the courses were transferred to the campus. It was officially opened on 18 April 2011 by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong.[1]
