Bentley will offer a major in ‘diversity, equity, and inclusion.’ Here’s why.

Diversity and Inclusion Program Manager. Chief Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Officer. Director of Diversity Development.

These are all jobs posted in the Boston area just this month, and Bentley University is likely the first to create a major and undergraduate degree that prepares students specifically for these jobs.

Bentley’s new major in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) launches July 1, and students can choose either the bachelor of arts or bachelor of sciences degree path. While many universities offer certification programs in diversity, equity, and inclusion, few undergraduate schools offer any pathway to a degree. Locally, Tufts University offers a master’s degree and certificate in Diversity and Inclusion Leadership, but no undergraduate degree.
