CBMG Diversity, EQUITY and Inclusion


Mission Statement:

The CBMG department is committed to creating an educational and work environment that is rich in diversity, inclusive, and supportive of all students, faculty, and staff. The department aspires to reflect the diversity of the broader community; to create an environment where all department members are valued for the contributions unique to their abilities, background and position; and to facilitate their individual growth, productivity, and satisfaction.

 

The CBMG Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) Committee is responsible for assessing the departmental environment for diversity and inclusion, for recommending activities, resources, and policies to enhance diversity and inclusion within the Department, and for promoting equity and awareness in the department, including climate, recruitment, retention, and outreach.
