Welcome to MESA!
The Mathematics, Engineering, and Science Achievement (MESA) Program is a state-funded
initiative designed to enhance the educational experiences of under-resourced students
majoring in math, science, and engineering. We focus on supporting first-generation
college students by offering academic assistance, career development activities, and
opportunities for community building. Our main goal is to prepare MESA students with
the skills and mindset needed for a successful transfer to a university and the pursuit
of a STEM degree.
MESA is more than a study space; MESA is a vibrant, collaborative STEM community dedicated to fostering scientific curiosity and nurturing growth—personally, professionally, and academically — in STEM. We invite you to become part of our newly established program at Mt. SAC!
