Commitment to Diversity

We define diversity in the broadest sense - including ethnic and racial, gender, sexual orientation, and religious diversity, among other forms - to promote an appreciation for diversity across the enterprise.

As a community of faculty, staff, and students engaged in research, scholarship, teaching and learning, the UI fosters an environment that is diverse, humane, and welcoming. The University strives to provide a supportive environment in which people from a wide variety of backgrounds and cultures may encounter each other in a spirit of cooperation, openness, and mutual respect. We strongly encourage qualified students of all backgrounds to apply.
