Did you know? Research shows that girls often perform just as well as boys in math and science, but are less likely to believe they are "good at STEM." Early STEM experiences help build the confidence that shapes future educational and career choices.*

YOU can make a difference in kids' lives by participating in CESAME programs! Stay tuned for more announcements or check out the Cal Poly CESAME website for more details.

Looking for a way to make an impact in the community?

Keep an eye out for CESAME ChangeMakers this year! ChangeMakers gives Cal Poly students the opportunity to work with local 3rd - 8th grade students through hands-on engineering activities and field experiences focused on building a more environmentally sustainable world.

Last year, ChangeMakers teamed up with students in Atascadero to design, build, and test underwater ROVs, helping students explore engineering, teamwork, and problem-solving in a fun, hands-on way.

Interested in STEM outreach, sustainability, or working with youth? We'd love to have you join us.

Recruitment information coming soon - stay tuned!
