Mercer County Community College (MCCC) is a comprehensive, publicly supported open-admission two-year institution. MCCC has two campuses located in central New Jersey and an enrollment of approximately 13,000 students. Mercer students represent a variety of ages and cultures, adding to the diversity and richness of their college experience. The geographic area surrounding MCCC is struggling, with the majority of high school students that feed into MCCC living in low-income families and receiving free or reduced lunch. The under-represented minority (URM) and female populations at MCCC are quite high, which creates a perfect opportunity to support and encourage these students in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM), where their populations are traditionally not as high.
