We create a world that works by building awareness of the benefits that diversity in all its forms can bring, and by ensuring that each person is able to contribute to and benefit from a culture and climate of inclusion.
We are proud of our Student Organizations, such as the National Society of Black Engineers, the Solar Car Team, the Society of Women Engineering, STEMgiqueers and the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers. Our students are actively creating a climate of belonging.
There are also many resources available to our students to help them succeed and find community, that they can review here.
Please review our Diversity and Inclusivity Action Plan here.
