Diversity

A commitment to recognizing and supporting diversity is at the core of all of the work at the College of Education and Human Ecology. From research to enable dynamic changes in education systems to evaluation of inclusivity in our own classrooms, EHE’s focus on diversity and inclusion can be found in our events, our education opportunities, and in our culture.

For more information on work throughout the college in diversity, equity, and inclusion, check out the Office of Equity, Diversity and Global Engagement (EDGE).
