Equity, Diversity & Inclusion

A diverse group of students working together

The Department of Architectural Science (DAS) is committed to providing a learning environment and culture built on the fundamental values of equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI).

These values are integral to our community and embedded throughout our programs, opportunities and resources. As a community of diverse cultures, experiences, opinions and ideas, we will continue to work collaboratively to remove systematic barriers and ensure an inclusive environment for students, staff and faculty in DAS.
