Montgomery College (MC) is a public, open access community college located in Montgomery County, Maryland, just outside Washington, D.C..
The Takoma Park/Silver Spring Campus is located in a dynamic urban neighborhood near the southern border of Montgomery County. We celebrate and embrace the diversity in our community and we respond to local, regional, and national needs by offering a comprehensive educational experience with signature programs in the Health Sciences and the Visual and Performing Arts. Our campus has a robust enrollment of over 7500 students who hail from more than 100 countries.
Our dedicated faculty and staff create an atmosphere where students learn inside and outside the classroom. We offer a wide variety of high quality programs and services designed to meet the educational, professional, and social needs of our students and the community. In addition, the Takoma Park/Silver Spring Campus is in the midst of an amazing transformation. In the past ten years we have added several new buildings and renovated existing buildings to better support the mission of the College. Our next project will be the construction of a new Math and Science Center to provide state of the art facilities for our students in the STEM disciplines, including Health Sciences. New facilities include:
The Charlene R. Nunley Student Services Center
The Health Sciences Center
The Morris and Gwendolyn Cafritz Foundation Arts Center
The Takoma Park/Silver Spring Cultural Arts Center
The most recent addition to the campus is Pavilion 3, a newly reconstructed building that houses our Communication and English for Academic Purposes (ELAP) Department as well as six state of the art classrooms. Plans are underway for the redesign and renovation of other buildings on campus to meet the growing needs of our students and the community.
The Takoma Park/Silver Spring Campus is experiencing a wonderful renaissance and we invite you to take full advantage of our top-notch academic and cultural offerings. Thanks for stopping by our page.
