Every Student, Prepared for What Comes Next

A Cal Poly Pomona education should open doors to opportunity. Our polytechnic approach connects academic learning with practical experience, preparing students to solve problems, contribute to their communities, and build meaningful careers.

Through 2030 CPP, we will take that approach to the next level by strengthening the connection between education and employment and ensuring that every student has access to a meaningful career-connected experience before graduation.

The Cal Poly Pomona Promise will connect academic programs with employers, industry, alumni, and workforce partners to expand opportunities for students to apply what they learn.

Experiences may include paid internships, cooperative education, undergraduate research, entrepreneurship, service learning, global experiences, and industry projects.

Every Bronco should graduate with more than a diploma. Students should leave with the knowledge, applied experience, professional connections, and skills needed to pursue high-demand careers, contribute to California’s workforce, and achieve greater economic mobility.

Career preparation begins with a strong foundation of student support. Students need accessible services, clear pathways, and the resources to navigate challenges throughout their educational journey.

The Bronco Student Success Ecosystem will connect existing programs and services so students experience a university that works together on their behalf. Coordinated, proactive support will help students meet their basic needs, access academic and wellness resources, remain enrolled, and graduate.

Affordability is equally essential to student success. Through Broncos Covered, Cal Poly Pomona will expand access to financial support for tuition and fees, helping more students focus on their education and complete their degrees.
