Inclusive Excellence at UAlbany
The Division of Inclusive Excellence’s primary role is to carry out the University at Albany’s mission to ensure that diversity in our people and ideas drives excellence in everything we do.
We provide campus-wide leadership to ensure a diverse and inclusive environment for our graduate and undergraduate students, faculty, staff, curriculum, programs and activities. We also promote a safe, equitable, growth-minded and engaged campus community that embraces the strengths of our differences.
While we won’t solve every challenge, we will create an environment where we shed light and use best practices to move the University community forward. After all, a diverse and inclusive campus creates an environment where all can and will be expected to succeed.
That’s UAlbany’s commitment and the Division of Inclusive Excellence embraces this challenge. Your thoughts, concerns, and questions are welcome.
