New BCT Complex Open for Business

March 15, 2018 - 11:01 AM

Mt. SAC held a ribbon-cutting and open house for its new $64-million Business and Computer Technology Complex on Wednesday, March 14.

 "The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive and the atmosphere has everyone buzzing," said Jennifer Galbraith, dean of the Business Division at Mt. SAC.

The long-awaited BCT Complex encompasses three buildings (77, 78, 79) and provides about 106,000 square feet of space for classrooms, hands-on labs, and state-of-the-art technology. It houses Mt. SAC’s Language Learning Center as well as the accounting, business management, computer information systems, consumer studies, culinary arts, economics, fashion design and merchandising, hospitality management, interior design, paralegal studies, nutrition and foods, and real estate programs.

In addition to the BCT Complex, a lobby was added to the west side of Building 66 to connect it to the rest of the campus through a new pedestrian pathway.

Students began taking classes in the new facility, which was made possible with support from Measure RR funds, at the start of spring semester on Feb. 26.
