College of the Mainland has developed an Academic Master Plan to serve as our roadmap for the Instructional Division over the next five years. We are concluding the Academic Master Plan put forth in 2017. That plan helped to guide COM in program development and has resulted in the creation of programs in Engineering (with foci in Mechanical and Chemical Engineering), English, Information Technology with an emphasis in Cybersecurity, and an Occupational Skills Award in Massage Therapy, and the successful launch of our first bachelor’s degree with the RN to Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree.

We are also in the process of launching new Allied Health programs in Dental Hygiene, Surgical Technology, and Radiography pending their external accrediting bodies review and approval by our regional accreditor, SACSCOC. This plan will serve to provide guidance to COM in its instructional and facilities plans over the next five years.
