Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
At the College of Engineering, we are developing a diverse culture where everyone - faculty, staff, and students - can feel welcome and supported and build a community in which they can succeed. By embracing different perspectives of ideas and thoughts, of every race, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, life experience, and cultural background, we can contribute to addressing many of the challenging problems that are facing the state, the country, and the world. Our end goal is to foster an environment where all students, faculty, and staff can thrive, feel safe, and be empowered to be their true selves.
