Gender Equity
UCLA has made a major commitment to faculty diversity. Achieving diversity means creating a supportive campus environment for everyone, inclusive of women and other historically underrepresented groups, as outlined by federal affirmative action guidelines. Women represent 50% of our national population and nearly 50% of all doctorates awarded annually. The intersection of women’s issues with those related to race and ethnicity—as well as other characteristics such as sexual orientation, disability, and religion—is a key component of diversity. |
