The top level of the Smith Building houses The Center for STEM Learning and the lower level houses The Center for Nursing & Health Careers. These spaces feature leading edge technology and equipment aimed at delivering coursework in areas such as nursing, anatomy and physiology, biology, chemistry, mathematics, sciences and more.

MCC President Stacy H. Young, Ph.D., said the renovated learning spaces support the college鈥檚 mission of 鈥淭ransforming Lives Through Quality Education.鈥�

鈥淭hroughout the building you will see spaces designed to enhance course delivery and student support,鈥� Dr. Young said. 鈥淒elivering coursework in these spaces will help MCC meet the demands of a dynamic and evolving workforce by building students鈥� professional skills, content knowledge and fluency in STEM fields.鈥�
