California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo Ranking 2024 from QS, THE & US NEWS

There are major job fairs every quarter, and almost everyone I know has graduated with multiple different job offers in their field of study. Many employers are interested specifically in Cal Poly students because of their hands-on experience.

Yes, there are plenty of internships and undergraduate research options. I worked about 4 hours a week for 3 months for my health communications research with a professor and made $12 an hour. It was an amazing opportunity, and I loved working with the faculty and other students. I also work on campus at the children's center for about 12 hours a week, for $12 an hour. That job is also fantastic, but I only was hired because I have prior childcare experience (the job was very competitive).

So good. I think 95% within my discipline have a job lined up before even graduating. Outside of my discipline, it is still good. Most people are offered a job before graduation and those that aren't being offered one soon after.

There is not a specific internship provided but there are lots of opportunities provided. For example each quarter there is a career fair where many different companies come to specifically hire cal poly grads.

They provide many resources such as career fairs for you to get a job. Since I am going straight to law school after this, I have not needed to look for a job yet. But they do try to help to the best of their ability.

Through my college's internship website, I got an internship working at a Family Law Clinic at the Superior Court. I loved every minute of it. It was not a paid internship (most aren't for law-based internships).
