An excellent college education includes more than taking classes. Extracurricular student activities can enrich the college experience, so the Cal Poly Pomona civil engineering program places a strong emphasis on student clubs and extracurricular activities. We have six student clubs devoted specifically to civil engineering. In addition, other clubs with a wider range of interest also are available.
The current civil engineering student club activity calendar shows the dates and times for club meetings and other events.
The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) is a national organization of professional civil engineers. The Cal Poly Pomona student chapter is associated with the national organization, and is the largest civil engineering student club. It also is one of the largest clubs on campus.

One of the highlights of the year is the annual ASCE Pacific Southwest Conference, which is a competition between civil engineering students from universities in Southern California, Southern Nevada, Arizona, and Hawaii.
