The Department of Mechanical, Materials, and Aerospace 英格ineering at Illinois Institute of Technology is committed to welcoming students, 教师, and 工作人员—whomever they may be, whatever their identity is—to come and live, 研究, and work together in our community.
We expect everyone in our community to treat each other with respect and dignity, and we don’t tolerate bullying, 羞辱, or demeaning persons for any reason. Our goal is to hear and understand concerns and implement changes when needed.
Our department’s Diversity and Inclusion Committee consisting of student and 教师 representatives is committed to hearing from students, 教师, and 工作人员 to better understand their concerns and to implement ideas for needed change across the university.
