Through philanthropic support, Brown is fostering academic excellence through the cultivation of a diverse and inclusive community of scholars and advancing collaborative research related to pressing issues facing our society.
Advancing Excellence
Solving the most complex challenges of the 21st century will require diverse perspectives, knowledge, and experiences. At Brown, our commitment to diversity and inclusion is grounded in and central to the University’s academic mission of advancing knowledge and discovery in a spirit of free inquiry.
“ When you’re in a laboratory or a lecture hall, you rely on people who represent discrete approaches to scholarship, different worldviews and singular personal histories. When we all come together and find moments of synergy, it can upend our thinking about a certain issue or a particular problem. The results are new, exciting and uniquely rooted in this present version of Brown. ”
Brown’s world-class faculty and exceptional students represent the best and brightest researchers, scholars, and students from a range of backgrounds across the nation and around the world. This serves to deepen and broaden the impact and reach of discovery at Brown and equip students with the skills and insights needed to thrive in today's global marketplace.
Over the last ten years, Brown has made significant and essential investments advancing diversity and inclusion in pursuit of academic excellence in our schools, institutes, and research centers. Contributions from the donor community are helping to ensure that all students have access to the Brown experience and are able to take advantage of all the University has to offer. Together, we’re strengthening Brown’s distinctive and rigorous approach to teaching and research.
