[quote=Anonymous]You need diversity of thought, experience and problem solving approaches. Some level of capability is required for engineering and you can't go below that for a team. I have a team of many engineers and 2/3 of them went to the same undergraduate program and have been exposed to the same coursework in the same way. The others bring needed difference and innovation to approaches and help with forward progression of a project sometimes. Dei initiatives are about opportunity and looking at how people not like ourselves can contribute. We are only now looking at how certain medicines affect women and people of color for goodness sakes. And how heart attacked present completely differently in women. How digital cameras and photography base settings do not account for darker skinned people in compositions. [/quote]
