Women in Science & Engineering (WiSE)

At Cal Poly Pomona, the Women in Science and Engineering (WiSE) program is more than just an initiative—it’s a thriving community where students in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) find mentorship, support, and the confidence to excel. With a mission to recruit, retain, and empower the next generation of STEM leaders, WiSE provides students—many of whom are the first in their families to attend college—with the resources and encouragement they need to succeed. Through mentorship, hands-on experiences, and networking opportunities, WiSE ensures that students don’t just survive in STEM—they thrive.

Your gift today will directly impact students by funding essential program elements like the Engineering/STEM In Your Future overnight experience, WiSE-branded materials, recruitment scholarships, and BroncoBucks for campus essentials. With over 80% of our students relying on need-based aid, your generosity will provide them with opportunities that inspire confidence, foster belonging, and ignite a passion for STEM. Join us in creating a future where every aspiring scientist and engineer has the support they need to reach their full potential—give today!
