President's Message

Ronald F. Williams, Ed.D.
Herkimer County Community College President

Welcome! I am happy you’re taking some time to look at Herkimer County Community College.
Since 1986, I have served as Herkimer County Community College's President. Throughout the years I have watched the College grow and succeed with the help of our strong academic programs, competitive athletic teams, and our commitment to our local community.

Currently, Herkimer County Community College offers more than 40 degree programs leading to one-year certificates, A.A., A.S., and A.A.S. degrees. The Internet Academy offers eighteen associate degree programs and three certificate programs that can be completed entirely online.

Herkimer County Community College athletic teams have been very successful. The Herkimer Generals have brought home twenty-five National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) National Championships since 1987, and we are hungry for more. Not only are our athletes successful on the athletic fields, they are successful in the classroom and take pride in volunteering in the local Herkimer community.

A significant percentage of our current students are from outside of Herkimer County. Consequently, Herkimer County Community College is not your typical community college. The large population from outside Herkimer County contributes to our ever-growing diverse student population. Herkimer County Community College is the largest residential community college in New York State with the recent addition of Reservoir Run Student Housing Complex.

Year-round the campus is buzzing with activity. We have a lot to offer you, and we hope you’ll come and see for yourself what HCCC is all about. I invite you to take a trip to Herkimer, NY and experience HCCC.
