Our Philosophy

Learn by Doing

At Cal Poly Pomona, learning is so much more than classrooms and lectures. Here you dive in and apply your classroom learnings in active, hands-on experiences that address real-life challenges.

This is the CPP Polytechnic Experience (PolyX).

Consider it your professional onboarding for career success.
