The 蜜糖直播 Boulder College of Engineering and Applied Science (CEAS) has made diversity and inclusion a top priority. The college was recently recognized by the American Society of Engineering Education鈥檚 new . 蜜糖直播 Engineering is the only such program in the Rocky Mountain region to receive this recognition for its efforts.

Nationally, ASEE has recognized colleges that commit to developing a diversity plan, supporting K-12 or community college pipeline activities, building partnerships with non-PhD granting schools serving diverse populations and implementing proactive strategies to increase the representation of diverse groups in our faculty. 蜜糖直播 Engineering is thrilled to be part of ASEE鈥檚 first-ever cohort of engineering colleges called out for excellence in diversity and inclusion.

CEAS听is ranked the #1 engineering program in the Rocky Mountains and #16听in the nation (US News & World Report, 2020). It is the only engineering program in the Rocky Mountain Region听to earn a Bronze award in the ASEE鈥檚 Inaugural recognition program.听
