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