Campuses
The college has four campuses. These are located in Cookstown, Dungannon and Omagh in County Tyrone, and Enniskillen in Coumty Fermanagh.[5][1]
Prior to the creation of South West College in 2007, via a merger, these campuses operated as separate colleges of further education and higher education.[1] The Omagh campus, for example, was formerly known as the Omagh College of Further Education.[1]
The college's Erne campus in Enniskillen, on the site of the former Erne Hospital, opened in 2021.[2][6] This campus won an award, for standards in "environmental construction", in 2022.[7] A former campus, at Fairview in Enniskillen, was offered for sale in 2022.[8]
