A brief description of the diversity and equity committee, office and/or officer, including purview and activities:
OFFICE OF INCLUSIVE EXCELLENCE
For more than a decade, UCI has taken a university-wide approach to equity, diversity and inclusion. Led by the Office of Inclusive Excellence (OIE), this charge is about dismantling the systemic barriers of racism and discrimination that have too long been the norm in higher learning and our broader communities. OIE serves the campus priorities and is committed to a transformative, whole university effort grounded in our values: expect equity, support diversity, practice inclusion and honor free speech. UCI’s powerful vision of inclusiveness and change is supported through a dedication to ensuring accountability, providing training and education, conducting responsive research and building sustainable partnerships.
The Office of Inclusive Excellence is led by the Vice Chancellor for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion. The Vice Chancellor is a member of the Chancellor’s cabinet.
