Diversity: Faculty and other academic personnel
The University of California is committed to diversity and inclusion to achieve excellence
The University of California community values diversity, embraces inclusion, and honors excellence. Teaching, scholarship, research, creativity, innovation, and service flourish when all members of the community are welcomed, supported, and respected. Our work continues to fulfill these values. We are committed to removing barriers preventing full expression of our potential and to reflecting the population of California in our faculty, students, and other academic personnel, especially those who have been systematically and historically underrepresented.
