Outdoor Education Center of Pomona College (OEC)

Outdoor Education Center of Pomona College (OEC) To provide the Pomona College community with educational, recreational, and social opportunities that focus on local communities and global environments.

Using the outdoors as a classroom, our programs strive to offer co-curricular outdoor experiences. The Outdoor Education Center of Pomona College is one of the premier outdoor education programs in the country. The outdoor program provides hands-on opportunities for all students in outdoor recreation and education, promotes the preservation and conservation of the natural environment, and develops

student leadership skills. We believe it's important that students can get out and have fun without losing sight of the general mission to educate and build leadership skills. As the building housing the OEC is intended to be GOLD certified by LEED standards, the OEC is an example of sustainable programming in the center itself and on trips. The OEC has created many partnerships, both on and off campus, with academic departments, intercollegiate programs, and community organizations. The OEC has full time hours of operations open to our leaders, participants, and to the entire Pomona community.
