Welcome to the Equity and Inclusion in Engineering Program at UIC!
The mission of the Equity and Inclusion in Engineering Program (EIEP) is to empower historically underrepresented populations, first-generation students, members of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, and all students in the College of Engineering to thrive in engineering and technology. EIEP fosters a welcoming environment that champions persistence and excellence at UIC Engineering and beyond through comprehensive support, including academic advising, scholarships, mentorship, and inclusive programming.

“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.”
Current undergraduate student in Environmental Engineering and Greer Scholar|
