A diversity statement articulates concisely your values, experiences, and commitments to equity, inclusion, and diversity. Similar to teaching philosophy, it communicates to institutions the ways in which your pedagogical practices will support diverse learning populations. In addition, you can speak to future plans related to equity and inclusivity that can help institutions achieve their stated diversity missions.

This workshop consists of two parts, an asynchronous online component that must be completed prior to the workshop, and an in-person meeting.

This workshop may be counted toward the diversity/equity/inclusion concentration of the Achievement in Pedagogy badge, offered through the Graduate Student Teaching Initiative. For more information, contact tahelp@pitt.edu.
