New Mexico Community Colleges (2-Yr Colleges)

New Mexico Junior Colleges, Technical Schools, and Institutes

The State of New Mexico administers its own system of higher education which operate at least two tiers of public colleges. One being the community colleges in New Mexico, sometimes called New Mexico junior colleges, or New Mexico technical institutes, and so-called "four-year" New Mexico colleges which award bachelor's and master's degrees. The "two-year" community educational institutions provide post-secondary education and lower-level tertiary education, granting certificates, diplomas, and associate's degrees in New Mexico. The name, "community colleges" derives from the fact that "two-year" colleges primarily accept, and attract, students from the New Mexico local community

New Mexico has 17 public two-year colleges, including five comprehensive community colleges, three vocational-technical institutes, eight university branch campuses and a military institute.
