A brief description of the institution’s programs that help increase the diversity of higher education faculty :

The University of Minnesota recognizes that a faculty reflecting the diversity of our society is important in facilitating the development of world-class scholars and artists. To enhance the University's opportunities to recruit and retain highly qualified faculty, the University has established two bridge funds designed to increase diverse faculty hires: the Bridge Fund for Faculty of Color Hires and the Bridge Fund for Spousal/Partner Hires. Both Bridge Funds are administered by the Office for Equity and Diversity. The University has also established a Postdoctoral Diversity Fellowship to recruit and retain diverse faculty in partnership with collegiate units at the University of Minnesota, and a Pre-doctoral Diversity Teaching Fellowship for diverse doctoral candidates.
