MCC-Penn Valley — Health Science Institute

The Health Science Institute, or HSI, is at 3444 Broadway, a distinct MCC address a short distance from the main Penn Valley campus. It is not the same stop as the 3201 Southwest Trafficway Enrollment Center. The institute page lists separate contacts for credit career programs, nursing, professional education and the Health Resource Center, which helps students direct a question to the right team.

Training spaces are built around health-care tasks rather than ordinary lecture rooms. MCC describes a dental suite with six working chairs and imaging equipment, an EMS environment with a practice car, mock bar and convenience store, plus anatomy, health-information and small-group learning areas. The Health Science Institute serves programs such as nursing, medical coding, dental assisting, EMS, health information, occupational and physical therapy, radiologic and surgical technology, and respiratory care.

Students should check the selected program page for admission screening, prerequisites, clinical requirements and credit totals; general MCC admission does not guarantee a seat in a selective health program. The HSI is served by the MCC Penn Valley campus network, and the district map identifies a parking garage and accessible spaces in this area. Students can park free with the required MCC sticker.

Because HSI courses and labs can use specialized rooms, confirm the exact building and contact before travelling. The public listing for this address matches the college’s institute name and 3444 Broadway location; its review figures are retained in the college record rather than treated as a measure of a student’s likely outcome.
