Diversity and Inclusion

As a department, we seek an inclusive environment that recognizes individuals for their ideas, respects people for their differences, and actively encourages participation by students of all lived experiences and learning approaches. Engineering is inherently a team-based activity, where engineers interact with collaborators across a wide range of disciplines and perspectives. By better understanding our teammates, and appreciating teammates for their differences, we as mechanical engineers can help our teams excel. To embrace these values, the mechanical engineering department places emphasis on teaming, both through curriculum and extracurricular activities.
