California Institute of Technology (Caltech)

Our Commitment
Caltech is committed to enrolling the best and brightest STEM students from across the world to engage deeply in an interdisciplinary research and education environment that advances scientific breakthroughs and builds knowledge that benefits society. Talent has no boundaries, and the best STEM students come from all backgrounds, experiences, and geographic locations, and we have a responsibility to ensure that these students see Caltech as an option. To that end, we engage in outreach efforts, programs, and partnerships, such as STARS, that facilitate engagement with students who may not already be aware of or interact with the Institute.
