Southwestern Oregon Community College is a public higher education institution serving the communities of Oregon’s south coast, with campuses in Coos Bay and Brookings. Founded in 1961, it operates from Coos Bay’s 1988 Newmark Avenue location and focuses on two core strands: technical training that prepares students for skilled work in the regional economy, and two-year transfer degrees for those pursuing further study. The college also offers community education classes that support lifelong learning for residents.

At the Coos Campus, the Oregon Coast Culinary Institute is housed alongside a recreation facility, fitness center and student housing overlooking Empire Lakes, reflecting a combination of applied programs and campus life. The institution serves local learners and the broader region by providing workforce development, transfer pathways, and community programs, while engaging with partners and events such as the Gift of Literacy program with Rotary and the annual Winemakers' Dinner. In 2025, the college introduced a Guest Artist in Residence program to broaden its cultural offerings.
