A Commitment to Action
At Leeds, we are committed to creating a learning environment built on the values and ideals of diversity, equity and inclusion. Leeds Graduate Programs works to cultivate a broad-minded community that embraces varying perspectives and encourages students to bring their lived experiences to the table. The diversity of our programs is essential to both the academic and career success of our students.
In an effort to reach our goals of diversity, equity and inclusion, we are heavily invested in increasing the representation of diverse students, faculty and staff in our graduate programs. And we are committed to providing rich educational opportunities that prepare our students to be the inclusive leaders of tomorrow.
