The Molecular Medicine Graduate Program is mindful of all aspects of human difference and defines diversity in the broadest sense to mean inclusion of all persons, regardless of ethnic and racial background, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, veteran status, religious beliefs, age, ability, and socioeconomic status - to promote an appreciation for diversity across the enterprise.
As a community of faculty, staff, and students engaged in research, scholarship, teaching and learning, the UI fosters an environment that is diverse, humane, and welcoming. The University strives to provide a supportive environment in which people from a wide variety of backgrounds and cultures may encounter each other in a spirit of cooperation, openness, and mutual respect. We strongly encourage qualified students of all backgrounds to apply.
The Molecular Medicine Graduate Program actively embraces diversity by participating in or supporting:
- Annual Biomedical Research Conference for Minority Students (ABRCMS)
