This “EDI statement” will be carefully read as a standalone document and should include all relevant information even if aspects are also discussed in other submitted
  • teaching statement

Equity and diversity are essential to academic excellence. An open and diverse community fosters the inclusion of voices that have been underrepresented or discouraged.

Human Rights Code, including sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, racialization, disability, political belief, religion, marital or family status, age, and/or status as a First Nation, Métis, Inuit, or Indigenous person. All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however, Canadians and permanent residents will be given priority.

The Department of Psychology is committed to advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion, in accordance with a 5-year strategic growth and hiring plan (see https://psych.ubc.ca/about/equity-inclusion/). As one part of the initiative, we are committed to ongoing hiring of new faculty members who share a commitment to our departmental values of equity, diversity, inclusion, and justice, including expanding our departmental diversity in the broadest sense. Applicants who wish to learn more about how equity, diversity, and inclusion are valued, fostered, and celebrated in our department are welcome to contact Amori Mikami, Professor and Associate Head of Equity Diversity and Inclusion (mikami@psych.ubc.ca).
