The University of Michigan prides itself in its commitment
to recruiting the finest, most diverse student body,
faculty and staff possible.
Numerous Fortune 500 companies, military personnel,
and other higher education institutions filed amicus
briefs in the recent Supreme Court cases affirming that
to them, diversity of perspective in the academic community
and in the workforce is a critical factor to success
in an increasingly global economy. Consequently, many
organizations are interested in partnering with the
University to ensure diversity in the recruiting talent
pool.
The University has a number of programs with proven
records of success in
• recruiting students to U-M and supporting
the student experience
• preparing students for graduate studies
and technical careers

Central to this mission is the Minority Engineering Program Office (MEPO) which provide programs and services designed to support students as they proceed through a challenging engineering curriculum and graduate into rewarding careers as engineers. MEPO works with a variety of organizations and stakeholders to increase the graduation rates of underrepresented minority students from the University of Michigan College of Engineering.
