The Department of Chemistry recognizes diversity in many ways, including gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, disability status, national origin, religion and socio-economic status, among others. We understand that diverse talent is a strategic asset that allows for more effective research and teaching. We believe in a scientific culture that aspires to the highest standards of professionalism, promotes psychological safety and encourages respect for others, so everyone can bring their best creative selves to the department.
