At Cal State LA, we partner with the College of Engineering, Computer Science and Technology (ECST).  Dean Emily Allen and T. Fox share our focus on increasing the number of women and underserved students pursuing a STEM degree. Through innovative programs, such as employer-sponsored senior design projects and being one of only 15 invited schools participating in the Department of Energy-sponsored EcoCar3 competition, ECST provides students hands-on project experience to prepare them for a career.
