The Equal Opportunity in Engineering (EOE) Program invites students to become part of an exciting community focusing on academic success and personal growth.
The Cockrell School established the EOE Program in 1970 to promote the recruitment and academic development of African-American, Hispanic, and Native-American students interested in engineering careers. Since then, EOE has expanded its goals and now seeks to increase the diversity of its student body by supporting students from historically underrepresented population groups in Texas, or students whose backgrounds or experiences will contribute to the overall diversity of the Cockrell School. EOE is supported by the Cockrell School, corporate partners, and grants from the federal and state governments.
Mission
- Promote excellence in the areas of academics, leadership, professionalism, and community support.
- Develop pre-college and college students on their academic journey.
- Build a support network for advancement through opportunities that encourage engineering students to interact with their peers, faculty, alumni, and corporate representatives.
Vision
Our vision is to create a student body at The University of Texas at Austin’s Cockrell School that reflects the diversity of the college-age population within the state of Texas.
