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 diversity@essex.ac.uk
