We rely on our alumni to improve the program.
The generosity of our alumni help us continually improve the program. We
generally use the funds you send to reinvest in the students here and
maintain our alumni relations. The generosity also comes in the form of
guest lectures to our students and involvement in the alumni network. Please
see Top 10 ways to help us to get other ideas.
Please send donations directly to the Materials Engineering Department,
California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, CA 93407.
