Professor for a Day
Professor for a Day
March 10-14, 2025
Since 1998, Cal Poly Pomona's Alumni Professor for a Day Program has provided a unique experience for alumni and students. Alumni are invited back to campus to meet with students for mentoring on career path choices, graduate school possibilities, or even to teach a class for a day.
One of this program's goals is to provide students with an opportunity to interact with alumni and learn first-hand how their education applies to the real world. Alumni are asked to share their experiences in regard to their career path and profession.
