- Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
At the core of the Neuroscience Graduate Progam, is the belief that the success of our program is greatly attributed to the diversity of our students and faculty. This diversity creates a wider scope of vision and depth of experience to the program. Our program has been enriched by students and faculty from all over the world, from different socio-economic backgrounds, from different cultures, religions and beliefs. It is our fundamental belief that diversity, equity and inclusion, makes us better in mentoring our students, and preparing our graduates for successful career paths. We have several programs specific to enhancing and supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion. Find a listing and application information here.
