At Northwest College in Powell, Wyoming, you won’t just teach courses — you’ll inspire students in a classroom framed by the breathtaking landscapes of the Greater Yellowstone region.

Faculty choose NWC for our small classes, personal attention, and the chance to make a direct impact on students’ growth and learning.
