DiversityDiversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee
Committee Charge
The Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee (DEIC) is a standing committee within the Department of Materials Science and Engineering composed of faculty, staff, postdoctoral scholars, and students, at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. As articulated in the MSE department DEI statement, we are committed to promoting the values of inclusion, equity, and belonging.
The purpose of this Committee is to guide the Department’s efforts to enhance diversity across all of its communities. In pursuit of this goal, the Committee will work with existing Departmental Committees to ensure that the Departmental DEI mission is reflected in the actions of those committees and the outcomes they generate. The Committee will report its findings on departmental progress towards DEI goals to the MSE community on a regular, at least annual, basis. The committee will also engage with other organizations across campus to provide information regarding best practices to those within the department and by working with such organizations leverage efforts for maximum mutual benefit.
