Message from the Campus President
Dr. José A. Vicente - Campus President
Dear Friends:
In 1960, Miami Dade College made
its humble beginnings here, on what is now called the North Campus.
From the beginning, the priority has been to aid people from
diverse backgrounds improve the quality of their lives and become
contributing participants in this community’s cultural and economic
development. As the needs of
Dade County have changed over the years, so has the North Campus and its
role as an active participant in raising the level of excellence for the
community.
As you browse through our website, you will
find that the North Campus offers more than 100 courses of study to
facilitate admission into a four-year institution; address the needs of
the work force development community; upgrade your skills in the latest
trends in business and industry through credit and non-credit courses;
provide short-range training programs designed for the working
professional; or simply enhance your learning for the joy of it.
The North Campus has it all.
Programs exclusively housed at the North
Campus include the state-of-the-art School of Entertainment Technologies,
the School Justice and the School of Fire and Environmental Sciences.
We also offer nationally recognized programs in Funeral Services
and Graphic Communications. Couple
the multitude of academic, personal and occupational programs and services
with the beautiful scenery unique to the North Campus, and you have an
educational environment that is beyond compare.
The North Campus family looks forward to the
challenges and opportunities that lie ahead with great confidence. Our ability to set the standards of excellence for
students and the community is what makes the North Campus the star of the
Miami Dade College system.
Sincerely,
Dr. José A. Vicente
