Welcome to the College of Engineering
Solve problems. Engineer new solutions. Make everyday life better for millions.
Our Philosophy
A True Polytechnic Experience
The difference between wishful thinking and real-world problem solving is all in the doing. At the College of Engineering, you'll learn to think beyond what’s already been done to make it better than ever. You'll put theory to work through hands-on exposure, real-world application and cutting-edge research — preparing you to enter an array of industries with utmost experience, confidence and problem-solving abilities. At Cal Poly Pomona, you don’t just learn by doing. You become by doing.
