Monroe County Community College (MCCC) is a public, two year community college, located in Monroe, Michigan, USA. It was founded in 1964. MCCC also has another location, the Whitman Center, which is located in nearby Temperance, Michigan.

MCCC offers a general education program for students seeking transfer to a four-year university. In addition to that, MCCC also has an accredited nursing program and offers vocational training programs in automotive and welding skills. The highest degree that can be achieved through MCCC is an Associate Degree. However, in certain programs, such as nursing, one can achieve a Bachelor's Degree, since MCCC offers four-year university classes on their campus from EMU and Siena Heights.

MCCC also has a Formula SAE chapter, a student operated newspaper (Agora), and programs available in distance learning, video, and online courses. MCCC has no sports teams, but they do offer intramural courses in many sports and health classes.

Built in 1964, it is located on the outskirts of the city limits of Monroe, Michigan. It is located off of M-50, which provides easy access for all surrounding areas of the county. The most recently built building is the performing arts building, the La-Z-Boy Center. It was so named for the donation that the La-Z-Boy Corporation (whose world headquarters are in Monroe) donated to MCCC. Currently the main campus encompasses 210 acres and seven classroom buildings:

• Audrey M. Warrick Student Services/Administration Building (A-building): student services, registrars office, cafeteria, recreation room (known as "The Cellar").
• Campbell Learning Resources Center (C-building): library, humanities division, career center
• East Technology Building (E-building): drafting, ceramics, computer technologies, electronics
• Gerald Welch Health Education Building (H-building): multi-purpose gymnasium, nursing center, physical fitness room
• Life Sciences Building (L-building): lecture halls, mathematics/science departments, greenhouse
• West Technology Building (W-building): automotive garage, computer lab, welding, robotics
• La-Z-Boy Center (Z-building): performing arts, music, theater

The Whitman Center was built in Temperance, Michigan in 1991. It is located further south in Monroe County to provide access to residents in the southern portion of the county and Toledo, Ohio. It offers the same services as the main campus but in a location suitable to those who live further away from the main campus. The Whitman Center was named for a nearby Ford dealership, Whitman Ford, which donated a substantial amount of money for the creation of the complex, which consists of one building.
