About BCC

Just two blocks from the University of California, Berkeley, the energetic urban campus of Berkeley City College stands on the cutting edge of community college education. University preparation and occupational training classes form the core of BCC’s curriculum, which also features model programs in fields as diverse as American Sign Language, Biotechnology, and Multimedia. A special arrangement allows BCC students to complete lower-division requirements in evening and Saturday classes on the U.C. Berkeley campus. Respected academicians and successful entrepreneurs, BCC faculty represent a broad cross-section of the Bay Area’s ethnic, cultural, and economic communities. BCC’s more than 4,000 students, studying amid the Bay Area’s opportunity-rich culture of innovation, are sure to be up to all tomorrow’s challenges. And we are now located in a new, state-of-the-art building,  that represents just how cutting-edge BCC really is.
