Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

Report Incidents of Bias Here

Our Mission

The Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics believes that diversity, equity, and anti-racism (DEAR) means more than just policies and practices. We strive to foster a work environment that is inclusive of all individuals regardless of race, color, national origin, sex, religion, sexual orientation, age, gender and gender identity, disability, and military backgrounds. We recognize that embodying diversity, equity and inclusion in our Department and University culture takes both short and long term action, in multiple settings, and a commitment from individuals at all levels. We assert that every individual should feel valued and included at all times, and know that the diversity of our backgrounds is vital in generating new ideas and building a thriving relationship with our local community.
