Purpose

The Simmons Scholars Program is an academic initiative administered by Diversity Programs in Engineering (DPE) that propels the success of underrepresented minority students, neurodivergent students, and students in the College of Engineering and beyond.  Simmons Scholars belong to an inclusive scholarly community, receive a financial award, and benefit from broad, holistic programming and advising that promotes a successful, transformative undergraduate experience and individual goal attainment.
