Caltech is a place that attracts the world's brightest and most creative minds to populate its faculty, research and administrative staff, and student body.
The Caltech Center for Inclusion & Diversity (CCID) seeks to foster an environment where various perspectives are not just valued, but celebrated.
We provide IDEA (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility)-related educational workshops and programming for all to learn, connect, and improve their practice and approach to doing great science. Because of our expertise, we can identify barriers and advocate for community members through our collaborations and programming. Our programming and initiatives not only play a role in expanding human knowledge, but they promote identity exploration, community-building, and networking, which leads to a sense-of-belonging, success (retention and achievement of staff, faculty, post-doctoral scholars, and students), and graduation.
The CCID website provides information for prospective students, undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, faculty, employees, and community members to help serve and grow our diverse community.
CCID programming, support structures, and campus organizations are open to anyone in the campus community, regardless of race, national origin, sex, gender identity, sexual identity, and/or any other protected characteristic.
