Office of STEM Diversity

Here is how we engineer for the greater good.

We are committed to creating an inclusive and diverse community—one that will enrich engineering education and empower our students, faculty and staff to achieve their goals.

The Office of STEM Diversity seeks to increase the number of underrepresented students pursuing science, technology, engineering and mathematics disciplines at the University at Buffalo.

We offer a variety of student-centric academic and social enrichment programs that feature peer mentoring, faculty mentoring and student research. We also work closely with national engineering organization student chapters and community partners to build a strong, supportive environment.
