Help Us Chart the Future

Dear students, colleagues, and friends;

The Civil Engineering Department at Cal Poly Pomona is reviewing the Program’s Educational Objectives or PEO’s. These are broad statements that describe what our graduates are expected to attain within a few years of graduation. As times change, we want to make sure that we remain receptive to the needs of our constituents, which include you: students and parents, faculty and staff, alumni and employers, graduate schools, citizens and representatives of the State of California.

Please let us know your opinion:

WHAT SHOULD OUR CIVIL ENGINEERING GRADUATES BE ABLE TO ATTAIN/ACCOMPLISH WITHIN 3 TO 5 YEARS AFTER GRADUATION?

Please note that the question is limited to graduates of our 4-year Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering program. Your responses will help us better formulate our objectives and strengthen our curriculum in an effort to better serve you, our constituents.

Should you have any questions, or require more information, please do not hesitate to contact me by email, by phone, or in person. You can also use the comment box below to provide your input. 

Your feedback is greatly appreciated.


Sincerely,

Dragos Andrei, Ph.D., P.E.

So in our process of searching for a vision, we first rediscovered the meaning of the word engineer: INGENIOUS. How would you like to study Civil Ingenuity instead of Civil Engineering? The next step was to formulate a mission and educational objectives - the things that we would like you, our students,
