Southwestern is the sixth largest community college in the state of Illinois. We operate campuses in Belleville, Granite City and Red Bud, plus more than 20 off-campus sites located throughout the district.

Southwestern's mission is to serve the diverse needs of citizens and businesses in the region. We do so by offering many outstanding programs through the Selsius corporate and career training, Programs and Services for Older Persons, and the Career Activities and Employment Center.
