Contra Costa College is proud of its vibrant campus scene. We have a lot of awesome things to do and some pretty great places to be.

Things to Do

Places to Be
Our recently transformed campus has several ‘linger and learn’ spaces. From our student lounge to the library or our STEM center, you’ll find several comfortable places to study on your own or meet up with classmates, get help with your coursework, or grab a meal.

We love sharing our campus with community members and prospective students—come check out our programs and services!
