Physics & Astronomy diversity policies

Diversity is a core value of UCLA. It enables us to provide the kind of broad, enriching educational experience for which the university has long been known.

Because we are a public institution, our students, faculty and staff must reflect the broad diversity of the state of California. We take great pride in the many backgrounds represented on our campus.

UCLA has a great legacy of preparing leaders from all segments of society who have gone on to make significant contributions all over the world. We are deeply committed to ensuring the continued diversity of our campus. We will do whatever we can, legally and appropriately, to preserve and expand the diverse nature of our university community.

Consistent with the university's commitment to achieve and maintain diversity, we at UCLA are continually working to increase the broad spectrum of perspectives available on our campus, which are critical to our mission of teaching, research and service.
