What We Do
We work to enhance faculty diversity through development and implementation of diversity goals for faculty recruitment. Through training, consultation and providing strategies and resources for inclusive faculty search committees we aim to recruit the most excellent and innovative faculty in the world. The Vice Provost for Faculty Development and Diversity collaborates with Academic HR Affairs and members of the senior NYUAD leadership to actualize these goals through multiple approaches, including:
- Regular workshops on best practices for faculty recruitment, for all who serve on faculty search committees
- Workshops on strategies to mitigate unconscious bias for faculty search committee members, chairs and administrators
- Development of a Toolkit for Recruiting Diverse Faculty at NYUAD
- One-on-one consultation with all stakeholders involved in faculty recruitment
- Candidate outreach and engagement
- Data analysis
- Facilitating network expansion for reaching diverse candidate pools for faculty positions
