  1. New Student OrientationCollege of Engineering

  2. CPP College of Engineering • Hands-on Learning • Bronco Engineers are in high demand • 5000 students and seven engineering depts. • Students are highly involved in research, leadership positions all across campus and in the college, and exciting internships. • Expect to be challenged. This is NOT Community College. • We have a newly re-designed website! Check it often for info: • http://www.csupomona.edu/engineering

  3. Common problems transfers encounter • Fast pace in Quarter system • Working too much! Less than 20 hours is ideal • Balancing work, family, personal issues, and commuting • Thinking CPP is the same as Community College • Not asking for help when you need it • Not staying on campus to get to know professors, other people, and to study

  4. Tips for success • Learn to manage your time • Use Resources • Get to know your professors • Get involved • Get to know your department • Utilize advising if you need help • 12-16 units first quarter • Reduce off-campus work load • Engineering classes are demanding • Join organized study groups

  5. Ask for Help! Use Resources • Learning Resource Centerhttp://www.csupomona.edu/~lrc/ • Math and Science Help (MASH) • The University Writing Center (UWC) • The College Reading Skills Program (CRSP) • ASI Tutoring • Maximizing Engineering Potential Program • Academic Excellence Workshops in major classes, Math, science courses • Disability Resource Center • Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) • Women in Engineering Program

  9. Academic Policies • Engineering Student Handbook • E-catalog • Campus policies • Course information including pre-requisites • Withdrawal policy • First 5 days without a “W” to add/drop • By the 15th day of instruction can withdraw online with a “W” • After the first 15 days, it is very difficult to withdraw! • Must have a SERIOUS/COMPELLING REASON. • CORE GPA and CPP GPA. • DPR (Degree Progress Report) contains Core, CPP, and overall GPA

  12. Repeating Courses • Course Repetition: Only if C- or lower • May only take course 3 times • 42 quarter units max Grade Forgiveness • NOT automatic • Submit Course Repetition Form • 16 unit max • Process before falling below 2.0 GPA • Use wisely (i.e. core classes)

  13. Change of Major • You cannot change your major during Orientation. • If you do not want to continue pursuing an engineering major, take GEs or go to the dept to find out the requirements of the major you want. • Non-impacted Majors in Engineering (ET/IME): • Please go to dept to find out specific requirements to switch. • Impacted Majors in Engineering (AERO, CHEM, CIVIL, ECE, ME): • Please go to dept to find out the specific requirements to switch.

  14. Registration Tips • Follow flow chart/roadmap; have back-up classes • CHECK PRE-REQS • Balance course load (not all core if you can do that) • Decide max number of units (12-16 ideal) • Confirm classes are added/dropped (including waitlisted classes)

Chair, and Associate Dean

  16. Resources • ASK FOR HELP!! • Assigned a faculty advisor in your major • MEP Academic Excellence Workshops open to all students • Get to know your professors and go to their office hours! • Cal Poly Pomona e-mail address • University method of communication and should be checked regularly • E-catalog
