Description

Los Medanos College is a public community college that provides quality educational opportunities for those within the changing and diverse communities it serves. By focusing on student learning and success as our first priorities, we aim to help students build their abilities and competencies as life-long learners. We create educational excellence through continually assessing our students’ learning and our performance as an institution. To that end, we commit our resources and design our policies and procedures to support this mission.

A major is the field of specialization you choose, such as Psychology or Computer Science. Depending on the major, you may choose to earn an Associate Degree or a Certificate of Achievement. See the LMC Catalog for requirements for each major. If you plan to transfer to a 4-year college, see a counselor—requirements vary according to major and transfer institution.

Most LMC majors are “open” to any student. The Registered and Vocational Nursing, Fire Academy, and Paramedic programs, however, require application to the programs after completion of specific prerequisite courses.

Los Medanos College is located at 2700 E. Leland Rd, Pittsburg CA, 94565, USA, on a 120-acre site near the boundary separating Pittsburg from Antioch.
