Personal Attention, Professional Growth

We're here for you.

At Brown Mackie College - Tucson, our programs are designed with the practical student in mind. School is a means to an end-the way to get the skills and training you need to begin your career or take the next step up in your current job. Our courses are thoroughly oriented to the real working world. We focus on the development of technical proficiency in your field as well as the overall professional approach expected in business, industrial or medical environments.

School fits into your life--not the other way around.

Brown Mackie College - Tucson makes it easy to take classes. We offer sessions in the day or the evening--whichever suits you best. You can work school around the other demands of your life--whether it's your family, a job or other pursuits that are important to you.

College doesn't have to be a juggling act.

One of the many student-friendly features of Brown Mackie College - Tucson is our unique pace. Rather than juggle three classes concurrently each quarter the way full-time students at traditional colleges do, Brown Mackie students focus on one course at a time. Each class is offered at an accelerated pace, lasting one month. No switching gears between different subjects; no pulling all-nighters to study for three or four final exams at once. At the end of each month, you have another set of credits under your belt and you're ready to move on to the next course.

You can start taking classes as soon as you're ready.

Since each month offers a new start, there's no need to wait until September or January for the beginning of a new semester. This is just one more way that Brown Mackie College - Tucson makes itself compatible to the individual needs of our students.
