Community engagement is critical to promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion in research and creative activity at UAA. Faculty, staff, and students engage with communities to address their health needs. The third Spring ‘24 COH Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Justice (DEIJ) Symposium will highlight faculty research that examines disparities that influence the health and wellbeing of all Alaskans. We will also have an immersive musical performance by Gail Jackson from CreativeRhythms. Come join our final symposium of the year - it will be worth it!

Incorporating DEI into General Education Requirements

Faculty members are responsible for creating an equitable learning experience. As students navigate their early studies at UAA, they must meet several general education requirements (GER's). The second Spring ‘24 COH Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Justice (DEIJ) Symposium features faculty and staff who champion the integration of DEIJ into their curriculum, along with guidance on the process of designating a course with the DEI GER status. They’ll share their experiences and lessons learned as the presence of DEI studies has become more prominent in recent years. Come learn about DEIJ opportunities and efforts at UAA.
