A Welcome from the President
Greetings,
Thank you for visiting the Chandler-Gilbert Community College website. On behalf of our faculty and staff, I am delighted to welcome you to CGCC, one of the ten Maricopa Colleges in the greater Phoenix area. Whether you’re a prospective student, parent, current student, alumni, community member, or friend, I would like to extend a personal invitation for you to visit a CGCC campus to see all that’s been happening recently.
For more than 20 years, CGCC has proudly served the communities of Chandler, Gilbert, Higley, Queen Creek and surrounding areas. Today we serve more than 16,000 students annually and are busily expanding and growing to continue to meet our communities’ educational needs. Last spring (2009) we opened Engel Hall and a new Aviation Hangar at our Williams campus. This fall we will open Javelina Hall (2009) and next spring (2010) we will open Ironwood Hall at our Pecos campus. These beautiful new facilities are waiting for you to enjoy.
No matter how large we become, at CGCC you will always find outstanding faculty and staff who care deeply about your success. Both in and out of the classroom, CGCC provides personalized services and exceptional learning experiences to help you meet your goals. Our focus on experiential learning, civic engagement, and stewardship provides a strong foundation upon which you can Connect to Your Future.
Whether your goals are to transfer to a four-year university, to prepare for a career, to enhance your academic or professional skills, or to enjoy life-long learning activities, CGCC has something for you. We offer a wide range of courses and programs at our three college locations – Pecos, Williams, and Sun Lakes. Our focus, always, is on you and your success.
