麻豆影院

The Department of Physics at the 麻豆影院 is committed to creating a collegial, mutually supportive, and inclusive culture. As outlined in the department鈥檚听Strategic Plan, diversity and inclusivity are primary goals of our department, both on their own merits and because they are essential to advancing excellence in education and research. Accordingly, we aim to develop a departmental culture where all members of the Department, notably those from underrepresented groups, enjoy both support for their work and a collegial environment with a sense of shared purpose. In this same spirit, a key goal identified in the Strategic Plan is for the Department to be recognized as a leader in recruiting and retaining diverse faculty, postdocs, students, and staff through dedicated efforts to improve representation.听

In our pursuit of a more diverse and inclusive department, the department is committed to efforts in the following four key areas:

• Pursue overarching inclusion initiatives at the Department level supported by the work of departmental groups such as R-Cubed, COSMOS, CU-Prime, Women and Gender Minorities in Physics, and EIC (see Groups and Resources听for more information on Departmental and Student Groups)
• Encourage and empower contributions from individuals and groups within the department, with a key focus on minimizing barriers that disproportionately burden underrepresented groups
• Increase knowledge of how to promote a healthy climate and culture
• Encourage evaluation of our efforts to improve diversity and inclusivity

In 2018, the CU Physics Department faculty voted to adopt a diversity and inclusion statement. The Representation, Recruitment and Retention (R-Cubed) Committee drafted the statement above and the CU Physics Executive Committee approved it听in May 2020.听Additional information on campus diversity, equity and inclusion can also be found on the CU 麻豆影院 Diversity, Equity and Inclusion website.
