Signature Programs and Initiatives
The Office for Equity and Diversity is committed to supporting the university through a variety of educational, recognition and reward, and engagement programs. To that end, we offer the following programs and initiatives designed to educate, incentivize and promote equal opportunity, increased faculty and staff diversity, a more inclusive campus community, and an understanding of difference across all dimensions of diversity.
A four-day program for scholars nearing the end of their terminal degree studies and recent graduates, including postdoctoral scholars, designed to support ECU’s faculty pipeline with an emphasis on scholars whose research interests align with our University mission and strategic plan, Future focused. Innovation driven.
One-day campus visit for participants to learn about ECU and the Greenville area, engage with ECU leaders, and hear from our outstanding faculty and staff. The first Experience ECU was held in November 2018. More information about Experience ECU.
