Message from the Associate Dean
Welcome to the Office of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (ODEI) at the UVM Larner College of Medicine. We believe diversity and inclusion are essential for institutional excellence, fostering innovation and problem-solving crucial in medicine.
Our work promotes a culture that is supportive for all members of our communities. We are guided by a comprehensive strategic plan that supports the education, recruitment and retention of talented employees and students who contribute to the excellence of the institution. We invite you to attend one of our events, engage in dialogue with our office and join us in making the Larner College of Medicine a dynamic institution attracting innovators in science, education and patient care.
I am privileged and honored to be of service to the University of Vermont community. Achieving a community of inclusion cannot be achieved by a single department, committee or individual. At UVM, we believe that diversity includes everyone. Especially YOU.
