A brief description of the institution’s programs that help increase the diversity of higher education faculty :
The McNair Scholars Program (TRiO) prepares qualified juniors and seniors for graduate study leading to Ph.D. degrees. McNair Scholars receive comprehensive support to earn undergraduate degrees, complete research projects in their fields of study, and apply to graduate schools. The program’s limited size provides a close-knit community while helping students gain a broad understanding of research and university culture. This program is only available for low-income and first-generation students (where neither parent has a bachelor’s degree) or students from a group that is under-represented in graduate education.
The UO's Alliance of Graduate Students for Diversity has a mission to create a support network to help students overcome challenges by creating a space to address professional and social development in graduate school relevant to students with diverse backgrounds. Their focus is building community, networking, and forming peer and professional mentoring relationships among fellow graduate students, faculty, and community members.
