What is the Multicultural Engineering Program About?

In 1974, the Council of Partners Advisory Board was formed and consisted of industrial partners who were committed to providing academic support to underprivileged minority students; such as Native American, African-American, and Hispanic-American students majoring in engineering, architecture, and technology. Today, the program offers academic counseling, scholarships, tutoring, mentoring, industry tours and contacts for internship opportunities. The program continues to grow, now serving 379 minority students. “We are dedicated to increasing the number of minority engineering graduates at Oklahoma State University.”
