The Office of Student Engagement is committed to building and strengthening an environment that supports inclusion, diversity, belonging, and equity (IDBE). We believe that these values are essential as we support students by creating spaces in which innovation and growth thrive, shaping a more vibrant institution, and offering a stronger, more relevant business education for our student body.
OSE strives to foster a community culture that empowers students with diverse backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences, and creates space for students to learn from each other while building inclusive networks and relationships. Our department aspires to the following unifying commitments:
to serve as a voice within the administration to amplify student questions, concerns, and ideas around race, gender identity, sexual orientation, ability status, socio-economic status, ethnicity, religion, and other identities
to partner with students to build a community culture that champions IDBE
to prioritize IDBE considerations when evaluating and developing new programs, initiatives, or partnerships, both internal and external
to espouse anti-racism in our work and our support of the student body
to continuously pursue opportunities to evolve and improve our knowledge and expertise as a support system and advocates
We are proud to collaborate with NYU Stern’s Office of Diversity and Inclusion, and we welcome ideas from students on ways in which we can continue to build an equitable and inclusive community for all. It is through our partnership with students that we are best able to meet the needs of our talented and diverse community.
