In addition to offering classes at various educational and business sites, the college has four permanent satellite campuses. All satellite campuses provide the same individualized attention, helpful student services, and quality education as the main campus.
Humphreys County Campus
In 1999, the Humphreys County Center for Higher Education opened to serve Humphreys County and surrounding counties. This vibrant local-state-federal partnership has made the Humphreys County Center a model for off-site campus expansion statewide. Nashville State Community College is the lead institution of higher learning at the 33,000 square foot facility located at 695 Holly Lane in Waverly.
Students can take classes and complete degrees and certificates in areas that reflect the workforce demands and needs of the region. Areas of high demand include Health Sciences, Education and Teaching. The newest addition to these offerings is the Industrial Process Control Technology (IPCT) program. Working with chemical processing plants in the Waverly/New Johnsonville area and surrounding areas as program partners, a curriculum for the IPCT program was developed. The IPCT degree has two concentrations: Process Technician and Maintenance Technician. Students learn to work as members of teams that are responsible for the production process within an industry.

Southeast Campus in Nashville
After significant enrollment increases at the main campus, the college and community determined there was a need to better serve the residents of southeastern Davidson County. In 2005, the Southeast Center opened on Foster Avenue to provide greater access to higher education opportunities in this area of the county. In fall 2012, the Southeast Center was relocated to 5248 Hickory Hollow Parkway and was renamed the Southeast “Campus” to more accurately reflect the expansion of the facility and its services. The facility features up-to-date science labs, smart classrooms, a bookstore, an open computer lab, an expansive student lounge, several study areas, a testing center, and plenty of parking. With the addition of over 40,000 square feet, the renovated 2nd floor opened in January 2016. To help better serve the increasing student enrollment, there are 15 classrooms, a science lab, quiet and group study areas, and a large open computer lab.
Currently, Southeast students can enroll in general education core classes, which lead to Nashville State degrees and certificates, as well as fulfill Tennessee Transfer Pathway requirements. Many students are preparing for careers in Business Administration, Accounting, Health Sciences, and Computer Science fields. A Law Enforcement facility includes two classrooms, a multi-purpose training room, and a forensics lab. The Law Enforcement program partners with MTSU’s Criminal Justice program to bring MTSU bachelor’s level classes to the Southeast Campus. The Randy Rayburn School of Culinary Arts, featuring a state-of-the-art kitchen, prepares students for careers as chefs and culinary professionals.
Through community involvement and support, the Southeast Campus is making the fastest growing part of Davidson County an excellent place to learn, work, and live.
