Lyman Briggs College has a goal of promoting an inclusive environment in which outstanding teacher-scholars support the advancement of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEI&B) in the academy. Therefore, the college seeks to bolster existing strengths and support the launch of exciting new programs and initiatives focused on advancing DEI&B. This agenda is best advanced by a cohort of faculty with varied perspectives and lived experiences in order to challenge biases and conventions in research and academia, promote innovation, and educate future generations.
To meet this goal, we promote a dynamic research and teaching environment in which qualified individuals of differing perspectives and cultural backgrounds pursue academic goals with mutual respect and shared inquiry. Therefore, we encourage applications from – and welcome nominations of – people within LGBTQIA+ communities, people of color, veterans, people with disabilities, and applicants from other minoritized groups.
