Community Building

Through networking events, professional development, and social activities, the Office of Health Sciences Diversity, Equity and Inclusion supports community and belonging for people of all backgrounds across the health sciences schools. We also collaborate with the diversity teams in the six schools to build a sense of welcome and inclusion.

Selected recent events sponsored or co-sponsored by OHSDEI:

  • The Diversity Deans’ Summit and Summit Follow-Up, two days of professional development and interdisciplinary collaboration for diversity, equity, and inclusion-engaged professionals across the University
  • Networking dinners, where new research faculty members meet and forge relationships with one another and the health sciences schools’ senior leadership
  • Mixers for all students and faculty underrepresented in the health sciences, and their allies
  • Social outings across Pittsburgh
