A brief description of the institution’s programs that help increase the diversity of higher education faculty :
Development of Inclusive Excellence Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The University created a postdoctoral fellowship program to diversify the faculty by bringing persons of color to campus for two-year post doctoral fellowships. This Inclusive Excellence Initiative has enjoyed remarkable success to date. As of the 2009-2010 academic year, three postdoctoral fellows have graduated from the program. One fellow was successful in obtaining a tenure track faculty position at a research university, and two accepted faculty positions at Santa Clara. Currently, there are four postdoctoral fellows in the program.
Participation in SACNAS:
The Society for Advancing Hispanics/Chicanos & Native Americans in Science is dedicated to fostering the success of Hispanic/Chicano and Native American scientists—from college students to professionals—in attaining advanced degrees, careers, and positions of leadership. The Office of Affirmative Action actively participates in the group and their recruitment efforts.
Participation in The PhD Project:
The Office of Affirmative Action has become an active partner in the PhD Project. The PhD Project's mission is to increase the diversity of corporate America by increasing the diversity of business school faculty. The Project attracts African-Americans, Hispanic-Americans and Native Americans to business Ph.D. programs, and provides a network of peer support on their journey to becoming professors.
The Women of Color Network has been established to assist with faculty mentoring and retention.
Faculty mentoring committees have been established in the schools and colleges.
