okay, posters...which major at poly is the most distinuished? read, best to get jobs, best national reputation, best faculty, hardest to get into, whatever criteria you might apply.

We can only choose one? I heard positive raves for HRT,Agriculture, Engineering,and Architecture.

Before I even attended Cal Poly Pomona, Cal Poly alumnis told me that Hospitality Management, Architecture, Engineering programs, and Agriculture was popular and well recognized at Cal Poly Pomona. I voted for HRT.

Oh what?! No CIS? That's discrimination right there.

xiaoxue · 05-02-05, 09:06 PM

I think the poll should be redone with more general majors:

i.e. Engineering, Business, Biology, etc.

Consider it done.

kwak,
how can you change a poll in midstream?
how do you compare an entire college against specific majors? that's what you are doing when you list all of engineering against something like CIS.
if you want to change the rules then make them equal and list just colleges.
make the poll who is the best college. otherwise you have turned this into a joke just because one poster has complained.

Everytime I tell someone I go to Cal Poly they go:

"Oh you're an engineer?"

jayandbutton · 05-06-05, 07:59 PM

now you have three departments from business, only one from science, only one from ENV, only one from AGR an entire college (of engineering), and nothing at all from two other colleges. duh...what kind of sample is this? at least xiaoxue made an attempt by naming ten of the most popular majors. please fix this.

hehe, hey ikwak, sorry for getting all these ppl bashing on your poll. I had just wanted it to be eng. overall, cuz the top 3 (mech, elect, and civil) are really well known. Now everybody is calling foul because you didn't think like them.

sorry dude.

If the major is not listed in this poll, please cast 'Other' as your vote. This poll is for both Cal Poly Pomona and Cal Poly San Luis Obispo university.

Members can also discuss about others majors in this thread.

College of Engineering and College of Architecture. Get a 3.0 or higher with an internship background or coop program and you're set for a job.

Where can we find out the number of undergrad and grad students for each department??
