At Columbia University Irving Medical Center, we believe that achieving excellence is inextricably linked to striving for the highest standards in diversity, equity, and inclusivity. Fostering a supportive and culturally rich environment is paramount to the success and wellbeing of our student body, our distinguished faculty, and the broad patient populations we serve. We stand together because diverse experiences, perspectives, and values enrich every dimension of our work.
