Equity, Diversity, & Inclusion
A diverse scholarly community stimulates innovation and educational excellence.
The College of Science works to maintain a respectful, inclusive, and supportive environment where all students, staff, and faculty can flourish. We are actively working to increase the diversity of our faculty, staff, and students to promote belonging and community for all. We value constructive input and welcome feedback from our community.
Our efforts are ongoing. Like scientific discovery, the work toward fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion is never "done."
