A Message from the President

Darlene Miller, President

Welcome to Manchester Community College!

We’re pleased you’ve chosen MCC for your college experience. I personally want to assure you that we can help you achieve your academic goal – whether you plan to transfer to a four-year college, to upgrade your skills, or to begin a new career.

Over the past 60 years our college has evolved from a vocational-technical college into a comprehensive community college. Staying true to our original mission, we continue to provide the state of New Hampshire with the skilled technicians necessary to keep our economy thriving. MCC is also where hundreds of students acquire career skills to successfully enter a profession. Skilled computer programmers, automotive, construction and HVAC technicians, welders, nurses, early childhood educators, medical assistants, graphic artists, financial services personnel, and many other professionals receive their training here. While one-third of our recent graduates are continuing their education, two-thirds report that they are currently employed in their chosen field.

Of course, because we are a comprehensive community college, many of our students are enrolled in bachelor’s degree transfer programs. Through transfer agreements, you can continue your education at any of the institutions of the University of New Hampshire System, Southern New Hampshire University, St. Anselm College, Rivier College, NEC, Wentworth Institute of Technology, Franklin Pierce, and many others. Transfer students are continuing their education at the bachelor’s degree level in close to 70 fields, from Accounting to Zoology.

Everyone deserves an opportunity to earn a college degree. Our mission is to help you achieve your goal. Whether you plan to transfer, to upgrade your skills, or to begin a new career, our faculty and staff are committed to helping you succeed. I wish you the best of luck and congratulate you on making a good choice for your college experience.

Warmly,

Darlene G. Miller, Ed. D
President
