Mt. Hood Community College (MHCC) is a public community college in Gresham, Oregon, United States, named after Mount Hood. Opened in 1966, MHCC enrolls nearly 26,000 students each year and offers classes at the 212-acre (86 ha) main campus in Gresham, the MHCC Maywood Park Center, and evening education centers at area public schools. The college is within relatively short distance from other nearby communities, such as Sandy and Clackamas, and is roughly fifteen miles away from downtown Portland.

The college's programs include nursing, funeral science, integrated media, automotive technology and transfer opportunities to local universities toward B.A. degrees in humanities and science programs. The college is financed by local property tax funds, state reimbursement funds and student tuition. Local voters established the college tax base in 1968 and approved tax base increases in 1970 and 1980.

The college is known for a strong jazz performance program, and is the home of jazz radio station KMHD and was formerly the site of the Mt. Hood Jazz Festival each summer, which returned in 2008. As of May 2011, Mt. Hood no longer offers a degree for music majors. All music classes are now strictly electives.

MHCC is also the home of an EOU (Eastern Oregon University) 4 year degree program in either Business Administration or Education, both with several concentrations. The classes are held in the same manner as a regular 4 year institution. Students attend class weekly, either nights, weekends, or both and learn from accredited professors, many with PhD's (which is true of the host college, MHCC, as well). This program is under the Eastern Oregon University - Mt. Hood Metro Center.
