Hispanic Business Magazine ranks engineering No. 4

In its September issue, Hispanic Business Magazine named Cornell's College of Engineering the No. 4 graduate school nationwide for Hispanic students.

The magazine assessed the diversity records of schools in engineering, law, medicine and business. They used such factors as enrollment and percentage of degrees earned by Hispanics to determine their rankings, as well as the schools' resources and programs to support recruitment, retention and graduation of Hispanic graduate students.

Cornell achieved a higher ranking than several other institutions with larger enrollments of Hispanic graduate students, noted Sara Xayarath Hernandez, interim director of Cornell's Diversity Programs in Engineering.
