The Center for Engineering Education and Diversity (CEED) supports a diverse undergraduate student body pursuing STEM careers through a variety of programs. From mentorship and scholarship opportunities to hands-on workshops facilitated by our industry partners, we are intentional in our efforts that are designed to shape and empower the next generation of engineers and leaders.
