The Materials Engineering Department thrives because of the generosity and involvement of our alumni, industry partners and friends. There are many ways you can make a difference in the lives of our students: 

  • Share your story by emailing us at mate@calpoly.edu. Let us know how your Cal Poly education has shaped your path. 
  • Host or speak at a MATE student club event to inspire the next generation. 
  • Sponsor a senior project or hire a student for an internship or full-time role. 
  • Join our External Advisory Board and help guide the future of the program. 
  • Donate equipment or supplies for student use in our labs. 
  • Or simply reconnect by hosting an alumni gathering. Your experience and encouragement matter. 

Together, these contributions strengthen our Learn by Doing culture and ensure MATE students graduate ready to take on the challenges of tomorrow.
