STUDENTS

College is an incredibly meaningful time of one's life; it's an opportunity for individual progress and maturation. Undergraduates continue to find out what they want to pursue and cultivate many of the essential skills to be a flourishing adult. But growth is more than what one learns in a classroom environment - the late nights discussing Noriega with a schoolmate, the nugget of wisdom learned from a tenured professor, the exposure to a different stance on an issue. Therefore, attending a diverse college vastly enriches what one gains from the time in university.

Engineering Technologies is a slightly more ethnically diverse major than average*. 57% of the nation's Engineering Technologies majors are white students, followed by students of other races**(19%), latino students (12%), and asian students (7%). The most ethnically diverse college* in the top 100 is Claremont McKenna College located in Claremont, CA.

In addition, Engineering Technologies very highly skews male, more so 95% of subjects. 82% of students majoring in Engineering Technologies identify as men. Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Daytona Beach in Daytona Beach, FL has the most gender balanced student body in the top 100.

Another significant type of diversity is financial diversity. Engineering Technologies is more economically diverse than 78% of subjects. 27% of its majors come from households earning less than $30,000 a year, 16% are from households with $30,000 to $48,000 annual incomes, and 26% grew up in families who earn more than $110,000 per year. Vermont Technical College is the most economically diverse institution in the top 100.

Considering each type of diversity, overall NJ is the most diverse state for Engineering Technologies. The Far West is the most diverse region, and the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference is the most diverse conference.
