Manchester Community College serves the greater Manchester area ( largest city in NH), and is a member of the Community College System of NH. MCC is the home of a state-of-the-art automation laboratory recently funded by a federal TAACCCT grant. Curriculum includes certificates in Mechatronics, Robotics and CAD and an AS degree in Advanced Manufacturing Technology. Area manufacturers participated in the procurement of lab components and the design of new and enhanced curriculum. These same manufacturers are benefiting from the program by hiring the graduates and collaborating with internships and other types of employment for future graduates.
