What do you enjoy about being part of the Associates?

Being a member of the Associates provides me with opportunities to engage with Caltech's science and engineering faculty and students, who make groundbreaking discoveries and develop innovative solutions to world problems. The Associates also provides me with opportunities to interact with other like-minded Caltech supporters who are enthusiastic about the Caltech research and programs they support.
