Kansas State University is offering students the opportunity to take an $8,300 Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) business certificate.
According to the university’s website, the “Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging in Business Undergraduate Certificate” provides students a “focused specialty area of study that builds skills to strategically manage a multicultural and identity-diverse workforce.”
The online program requires 15 credit hours, costing $555.95 per hour for a total of $8,339.25.
The university advertises the program as a chance to take advantage of “increasing opportunities” in DEI business careers. According to the site, companies are hiring “analysts,” “project managers,” and other positions that require DEI skills.

The core curriculum for the certificate includes “Managing for Diversity and Inclusion in the Workplace,” whose description is listed in an archived catalog. That catalog says that the course offers students a “framework for understanding how diversity and a culture of inclusion interfaces with all aspects of an organization.”
Students also learn how to develop a DEI plan at an “organizational level.”
The certificate also requires “Intercultural Competence in Institutions,” “Culture and Context in Leadership,” “Organizational Behavior,” and “International Management.”

The university is offering the program at a time when state lawmakers are more broadly accusing the school of avoiding Kansas’ anti-DEI law.
