Yosemite Community College Research Office

The YCCD Research Office provides research support to Columbia College and Modesto Junior College. We also provide data upon request to the community, or to support compliance reporting and grants. The office is responsible for data submissions to fulfill mandated state and federal reporting. The office coordinates the YCCD Research Work Group and works collaboratively with the campus Research offices.
