Welcome to the Equity and Inclusion in Engineering Program at UIC! Heading link

The Equity and Inclusion in Engineering Program (EIEP) supports the transition to UIC Engineering for historically underrepresented populations, first-generation students, and members of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community; and supports their persistence in the engineering and technology fields. EIEP also provides academic advising, scholarship opportunities, mentorship, and various programs to enhance students’ experience at UIC.

“Being a commuter the EIEP feels like a second living room. It’s a comforting space with games, music, snacks, and amazing people. If you’re looking for a mini oasis on campus it’s the EIEP lounge.”
