Celebrating a million alumni, the multi-campus College serves two-thirds of Nevada's population and 40 percent of Nevada's higher education students. As the fourth largest two-year college of its kind in the United States and Nevada's largest institution of higher learning, CSN educates a professional and technology savvy work force that has been the backbone of the state's dynamic growth and prosperity since 1971 when CSN opened its doors as Clark County Community College with 402 students.

To meet demand to develop public health administrators and college faculty in dental hygiene, CSN also awards a four-year baccalaureate degree (B.S. in Dental Hygiene), in addition to its nationally recognized associate degree program in dental hygiene.

In the last decade, CSN more than doubled its size in student enrollment and full-time faculty. Each semester, CSN registers nearly 40,000 students. Over 1,800 students graduate yearly with associate degrees and certificates of achievement.

The College employs over 2,800 people while operating three main campuses and 11 academic centers and sites in four counties, in a 42,000 square mile area the size of Virginia. The staff includes about 500 full-time faculty (nearly a third with doctorates) and more than 800 part-time instructors in over 125 career fields.
