IntroductionGreetings- Welcome to the Normandale Community College catalog for 2011-2012. Whether it's details about the courses that will help you get to the career or degree you've chosen, or services and activities that will enrich your student experience, you will find all the information you need about Normandale to help you reach your educational goals. Once you enter these doors, we are committed to helping you succeed. And your Normandale education is worth something: four-year institutions accept our transfer students with open arms, and we appreciate our many partnerships with the local business community. Normandale's campus is a vibrant, diverse community of learners, and we continue to upgrade our programs, courses and facilities to meet the changing needs of our community and to accommodate growth. Upgraded classrooms and state-of-the-art labs and equipment are examples of recent improvements that help us to continue providing the finest education to be found anywhere. I encourage you to visit a new area of campus or participate in a new activity based on what you've read in this catalog. You will find, as many others have, that Normandale is where you belong.
