Many have published books, articles and papers. Many are distinguished researchers. Many are international travelers, sensitive to the history, cultures and traditions of the nations of the world. But, above all, Santa Monica College professors are dedicated to teaching. That means that each student gets more individual attention than they would in a four-year university.
Classes are small and there is ample opportunity for student discussions.
Our teachers are committed to high academic standards and expect top-quality work from their students. In addition to classroom lectures, the college brings nationally-acclaimed speakers and performers to campus. Preparing For Leadership Business and Economics are among the most popular training programs at Santa Monica College, from accounting to international trade to marketing. Students in these programs are preparing to occupy leadership and professional roles in both public and private institutions. Santa Monica College graduates include top ranking executives in major corporations and entrepreneurs who have started their own companies.
