Long Beach City College has 5 Career and Academic Pathways (CAPs)*, which are groups of related majors that lead to degrees and certificates. For those undecided about their major or career goal, selecting a CAP is an essential first step on the path to college completion. Students should declare a major within their first year at LBCC, so choosing a CAP of interest allows for more guided and deliberate exploration of careers and opportunities within a general field of study in order for this to be accomplished.
*CAPs are also known as "meta-majors".
We offer services such as Degree Completion, Student Support Programs, College Transfer, and much more.
Our staff can help you apply for financial aid and scholarships to cover the costs until you graduate.
Short-term personal and professional development courses that are available to members of the community.
Start your career with an apprenticeship or internship, or work with a career counselor to find & land the perfect job.

The College reserves the right to determine which courses listed in the catalog are to be offered each semester. Changes in curriculum or course content may occur after the deadline for submission of information for this catalog. Refer to the catalog addenda (Fall, Spring) for updates and corrections; modified courses and awards will adhere to the rules of catalog rights and continuous enrollment and will be published in the subsequent main LBCC Catalog, which is published annually.
Before the beginning of each academic term, LBCC publishes a schedule of classes online indicating each course to be offered. Schedules are available on the college website at www.lbcc.edu. Changes in curriculum offerings or fees charged may occur after the schedule is published.
Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended by Congress in 1998, requires agencies receiving federal funds to make their electronic and information technology (EIT) accessible to people with disabilities. In compliance, the Long Beach Community College District provides its catalog, instructional materials, and other college publications in alternative formats. Students who require special assistance and would like materials in an alternative format should contact the Disabled Students Programs and Services Department at 562-938-4558 or 562-353-4217 (Video Phone) in order to register and participate in these specialized services. A Disabled Students Programs & Services office is located on both the LAC and PCC campuses.
