Access, Community and Engagement (ACE)
In 2019 recognition of ongoing efforts to promote an environment where all can succeed, the University of Kentucky Pigman College of Engineering received a Bronze Award under the American Society of Engineering Education (ASEE) Diversity Recognition Program. In addition to the Bronze Award, the college was further recognized as “exemplar.” The distinction came as the result of ASEE’s inaugural Diversity Recognition Program.
According to ASEE’s website, “…the ASEE Diversity Recognition Program was created to publicly recognize those engineering and engineering technology colleges that make significant, measurable progress in increasing the diversity, inclusion, and degree attainment outcomes of their programs.”
