UNALIKE MINDED

Forget that this is one of the top research universities in the country. Never mind that exciting things happen here that frequently change things for the better everywhere. Sure, those are good reasons to come, but perhaps the best reason is simply to be here among others like, but mostly unlike, you. In a place where you’ll be supported—academically, culturally, in every way.

This is your opportunity. To dig into other cultures, share perspectives and discover points of view you can’t even begin to imagine yet. You see, at this exceptionally diverse, world-renowned STEM university, we’re all different. But we’re all different together. Here, unlike elsewhere, it’s our differences that make us stronger and more collaborative.
