The West Technical College (Romanian: Colegiul Tehnic de Vest) is a high school in Timișoara. It was founded in 1946 as a school for civil, industrial and agricultural constructions. It suffered numerous name changes since, but kept its profile as an industrial and construction-oriented institution. From 2018 onward, it is known as the West Technological High School (Romanian: Liceul Tehnologic de Vest).[2] Currently, it is the only high school in Timiș County with a construction profile in which plumbers, masons, electricians, builders, carpenters, joiners and painters are trained.[3]
