A Comprehensive Community College

 

Since its founding in 1967, ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï (ºÚÁϳԹÏ) has educated thousands of students at the associate and baccalaureate degree levels. Students enrolled in ºÚÁϳԹÏ’s coursework are provided access to the most current academic theories and state-of-the-art training methods, all provided by a staff of professors, instructors, part-time instructors, and higher-education professionals who share a common passion: teaching. ºÚÁϳԹÏ’s library, academic success center, computer laboratories, and distance learning technologies provide the most up-to-date facilities available. Classrooms and laboratories feature the latest in technological learning tools, and courses are taught by instructors who are both scholars and practitioners of their crafts and disciplines.

As a comprehensive community college offering select baccalaureate degrees, ºÚÁϳԹÏ’s more than 3,600 students per year have the opportunity for an education, that includes physical, life, and social sciences; mathematics; fine arts; humanities; and a variety of technologies. About half of ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï students are of traditional college age, and the other half are non-traditional adults over 24 years old entering college for the first time or returning to prepare themselves for new careers. As ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï alumni, most now make significant contributions to Nevada’s rural communities.

Many students in rural Nevada are the first in their families to enter college. Some may need assistance in developing skills in one or another academic area. ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï also offers courses designed to develop skills to a level that assures student success and the final reward of a college degree.

In addition, ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï offers lifelong learning opportunities through its Continuing Education Department. Students of all ages can enjoy life-enriching classes taught by talented instructors.
