HCC休斯頓社區大學

HCC社區大學提供數百門課程 為升學及職涯準備 終身教育不斷提升 HCC課程的設計針對不同的人群，不論是應屆學生、還是尋求成人教育的在職人士，都是HCC的服務對象。社區大學的課程培訓人才，來滿足不同行業的技能需求，讓學生畢業後找到工作、或在HCC獲取學分和副學士學位後進入四年制大學在兩年內完成學士學位。 HCC社區大學課程設置類別: 1. 四年制大學轉學組: 學生在HCC畢業後，取得副學士學位。想繼續深造就讀的學生，可以轉念四年制大學，HCC學分普遍被四年制大學承認，可直接報讀大三的課程，繼續大學課程的後兩年，以取得學士學位。 2. 副學士職業組: 學生在HCC畢業後，直接找工作上班，因為學有所長，求職相對容易。 3. 短期專業證書 (Certificate) 組: 提供一邊工作、一邊在HCC進修的機會，提升專業水平，在HCC取得證書後可以在職場更上層樓，與行業需求最新的技術相接軌。對現有工作不滿意的人，若是希望轉換行業，HCC提供大量高新技術課程，能提升學生的求職競爭力，換取更好的工作。舉例來說，目前的三維印製（3D printing）以及網絡安全（Cybersecurity）很紅火，學生來HCC進修，拿了證書之後，立刻可以開闢新的職業機會，獲取高薪。2020年，HCC成為德州第一家、也是唯一的一家社區大學創設了人工智能(Artificial Intelligence或簡稱AI)副學士學位課程。 社區大學的優點 社區大學的優點有哪些？首先是學費便宜很多，學生在HCC上頭兩年，然後轉到一般大學繼續就讀，這樣子學費可以省很多。例如，若是住在HCC校區範圍內的學生，在休斯頓大學修一門課的費用可以在HCC修6門課。如果是HCC校區範圍之外，則可以修3門課。 其次，優點還有課程多樣化(更多實用課程的選擇)，如果想就業，可以選擇職業訓練及專業技能課程，上課時間更有彈性，且注重理論與實務的結合，這些好處都讓不少人考慮進HCC就讀。 在師資部分，許多HCC的教授也在其他大學教授，課程內容都一樣，教學同樣的紮實，而花費卻更少。 報名入學網址: https://hccs.edu/virtuallobby及電話713.718.2000 Houston Community College at Your Doorstep Serving southwest Houston and Fort Bend County, Houston Community College Southwest offers myriad academic and workforce enrichment programs.
