Academics

MCC prides itself on maintaining high academic standards and retaining quality faculty who are focused on student learning and success.

The college encourages lifelong learning and offers three pathways for students:

Academic transfer

Students earn an associate’s degree in arts, business or science and simultaneously complete the first two years of study toward a bachelor’s degree. By starting first at MCC, then transferring to one of our university partners, students save thousands of dollars in tuition.

Career and technical education

In 2 years or fewer, MCC prepares many students for high-demand, high-paying careers in a variety of fields including medical, industrial technology, computer technology, public safety and more. CTE students can earn associate of applied science degrees and/or certificates.

Non-credit courses

From arts & crafts to motorcycle training and yoga! MCC offers Community Education classes for fun, friendship & personal enrichment. MCC also offers corporate outreach focusing on business skills and management training.

We are MCC!

When I started at MCC and took one class and then another class and realized they were adding up and I was getting close to an associate degree, that it was very attainable.

The student I was when I graduated high school was one that was specifically told college wasn’t meant for me.

Kayla Crowe, MCC Student

I was a single mom, raising two daughters and working full time. MCC’s flexible schedules helped me earn a degree and move up in my career. I’m Jean Bishop, Mohave County Supervisor and I am MCC.

MCC prepared me for positions like I have today, and it was a great foundation for me to go on to get my bachelor’s degree and my masters degree. I’m Brian Williamson, Bullhead City Police Chief and I am MCC.

I have 2 bachelors degrees, but couldn’t find a job. I’m now in MCC’s Nursing Program and set to have a good job after I graduate, which will help me pay off the debt from the university.
