I was a University Administrative Fellow in the Office of Diversity and Inclusion, where I was able to witness the birth and development of Princeton's Diversity and Inclusion framework. I was afforded a unique opportunity to explore careers beyond the tenure track, and I was able to collaborate on issues and topics that are meaningful to me as an international student, as a woman, and as an academic." –Saadia El Karfi, GS, FIT Featured Programs & Opportunities Inclusive Leadership Learning Cohort Office of Institutional Equity and Diversity UAF Gain Experience Rita Allen Foundation Social Impact Fellowship Resources Office of Institutional Equity & Diversity Princeton’s institutional equity and diversity efforts are designed to promote equal opportunity and campus diversity.

Graduate School - Access, Diversity and Inclusion At the Graduate School, we believe that demographic and intellectual diversity drives innovative research and discovery, it expands our capacity for teaching and learning, and it equips us for lives of leadership in an increasingly pluralistic society. To achieve our academic mission, therefore, requires Princeton to identify, attract, and develop the most promising individuals from as many segments of society as possible. To that end, we aspire to be a truly inclusive community in which individuals of every nationality, religion, gender, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, ability, political viewpoint, socioeconomic status, and veteran status can flourish.
