Cal Poly's Graduate Programs
Our materials engineering master's program is on hiatus, as we have a small number of faculty and a large undergraduate program. Every year, a few MATE grads stay on campus to complete master's degrees with other programs (e.g., integrated technology management, biomedical engineering, polymers and coatings, and industrial engineering).
Contact Dr. Jean Lee for more information about getting a master's degree from Cal Poly.

External Graduate Programs
As we receive information about graduate programs, we post them in the student lounge and in our weekly announcements.
The Society of Women Engineers (SWE) has a great video that shows members studying at the University of Michigan explaining why they decided to become engineers and pursue advanced degrees in engineering.
