Geosciences
My internship with the Bureau of Ocean and Energy Management prepared me greatly for my next steps after Cal Lutheran. Working side by side with a geologist, geophysicist, and petroleum engineer has given me insight into the industry I couldn't have previously imagined. This experience is helping me prepare for graduate school.
Matthew Scipione ’16
Liberal Studies in Education
For years, I taught with success but did not fully understand the basis for that success. As my pedagogical research progressed, a teaching and learning model emerged that advances my teaching and guides professional development for other classroom teachers. This discovery continues to strengthen my teaching as I work and learn with my students.

Associate Professor
Theatre Arts
When students are able to assist me in the costume design process for television commercials or for the stage, it best prepares them for a career in the industry by giving them real world, relatable experiences. They are able to creatively problem solve and to quickly think on their feet. As their teacher, my goal in the classroom is to give students as many tools and opportunities as possible to equip them for situations whether creative or practical.
