Engineering is centered on problem solving, and research shows that diverse teams lead to more innovative and better solutions. A diverse faculty and student body enable all students to interact with peers who have varied perspectives rooted in different backgrounds. These experiences are highly valued by employers and give students the skills they need to succeed in an interconnected world. The College of Engineering is dedicated to further developing and growing our diversity programs, recruiting and retaining a diverse faculty and student population, growing diversity-focused student scholarships and fellowships, and expanding our student academic services.
