Statement on Equality and Diversity
The University of Essex recognises the value of diversity and is committed
to equality of opportunity within the University. It therefore aims to
create the conditions whereby students and staff are treated with dignity
and respect and solely on the basis of their merits, abilities and
potential, regardless of, race, ethnic or national origin, gender, gender
identity, sexual orientation, disability, age, socio-economic background,
family circumstances, religious or political beliefs and affiliations or
other irrelevant distinction.
The University is committed
to a programme of action to ensure that this policy is fully effective.
If you have any comments/questions on equal
opportunities at the University please e-mail us on
