What will I learn?

The graduate certificate in Diversity Leadership in Higher Education is designed to provide a broad range of knowledge related to the field of diversity and to create reflective practitioners who can lead and support formal and informal learning collaborations by diverse groups in higher education settings. The broader vision is that certificate holders contribute to the creation of responsible, ethical citizens able to collaborate in an increasingly diverse world.

A sequence of two courses is offered. Key foundational principles, policies, and procedures used in the field of diversity in higher education are introduced. Students learn about the models and theories for developing partnerships and serving as change agents within institutions, as well as strategic planning and assessment of diversity initiatives. In the second course, the student is the facilitator, leading diverse groups in a variety of settings and helping to create self-awareness of their own positionality and attitudes about diversity.
