This image provides many statistics that show that both minorities and women are not prevalent in STEM fields. The most drastic of these include that 73% of engineers are white, African Americans, Native Americans, and Hispanics account for over a third of the American population, yet they only account for 12% of undergraduate degrees in engineering, and only 1 in 10 STEM workers are minority women. These numbers are staggering and proves that diversity is a huge problem in this country that needs to be resolved.
