Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

The Department of Agricultural & Biological Engineering (ABE) is dedicated to creating a climate that amplifies and nurtures practices of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), not just through words, but through actions. To conduct this work, we have established a DEI committee and set the following three goals for this committee:

1) To understand and address ongoing climate issues that emerge in our community;
2) To enrich our intellectual engagement by supporting department members pursuing work and holding events related to DEI and holding events related to DEI; and
3) To build a long term accountability plan that gives the department multiple opportunities to sustain, reflect on, and continually revise our practices in order to achieve such an environment.
