School of Physics EDI Committee

7 Sep 2023

The School of Physics now have an EDI committee lead by students and staff. 

Affiliated with UCC's own Equality, Diversity & Inclusion Unit and EPONA, the School of Physics EDI Committee's draft mission statement is as follows: 

'In pursuit of a more inclusive academic community, we, the members of the UCC School of
Physics Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) Committee, commit ourselves to fostering an
environment that celebrates and empowers every individual, regardless of their background,
identity, or perspective. Our mission is twofold: to work with the IOP in implementing the New
Inclusion Model and to promote and enhance equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) throughout
our academic institution. We aspire to be a beacon of EDI excellence within our institution and
the wider scientific community. Through our collective efforts, we hope to inspire lasting change,
empower individuals, and advance the cause of EDI in the field of physics and beyond.'
