MBCC Ribbon Cutting

Описание: MATH, BUSINESS, AND COMPUTING CENTER

The first building in a multi-phase building plan that includes a new student union, planetarium and recycling center was dedicated on Oct. 13, 2015.

A ribbon cutting was planned for Orange Coast College’s newest state-of-the-art building, the Mathematics, Business and Computing Center.

Construction was completed on the MBCC in mid-August 2015, and the building opened to students on the first day of OCC’s fall semester. The 90,000-square-foot interdisciplinary complex includes 10 computer labs, three lecture halls and 30 faculty offices.

“The MBCC building sets the standard for OCC in new technology, with more than 700 computer stations throughout the building and the introduction of a virtual desktop infrastructure,” said OCC President Dennis Harkins. “Congratulations to our team of faculty, staff, students, architects and contractors who worked together to complete this state-of-the-art facility on time and on budget. And, as always, thank you to the community for their continued support of Orange Coast College through Measure M.”

The MBCC was built using money from Measure M, a $698 million bond that was passed by voters in 2012.
