DIVERSITY
U AT TEXAS STATEOur Public Administration program aims to be
a model of higher learning that places value in
its diversity and inclusion practices. In 2011, the
University was designated by the Department
of Education as a Hispanic Serving Institution,
which indicates more than 25% full-time Hispanic
undergraduate enrollment. Like the University
population, our MPA student body is diverse
with 31% Hispanic students, 13% Black students,
50% White, and 6% other ethnicities.
Engaging in activities related to diversity at
the university, departmental, professional, and
programmatic levels enhances our understanding
of diversity and inclusivity as a faculty, and we
aim to develop students' appreciation of the
same. In the coming year, we plan to harnessUniversity Enrollment by
