A Great College to Work For

TCU has been named a 鈥淕reat College to Work For鈥� eight years in a row by The Chronicle of Higher Education. We believe one of the reasons why is our ongoing commitment to being a friendly, supportive place to work. The University offers faculty and staff an array of resources dedicated to supporting diversity and inclusion on campus, such as Human Resource programs and those outlined below.

College Diversity Advocates

Advocates assist in fostering diversity and cultivating an inclusive learning and work environment in TCU鈥檚 schools and colleges. They focus on hiring and promotion efforts, recruitment and retention of faculty, staff and students, and serve as a resource and consultant to the Dean, Associate Deans, chairs and directors on DEI issues.

Instructional Resources

provide opportunities for faculty to engage in critical DEI conversations, increase awareness of diversity concerns and foster an inclusive instructional environment.

Please continue to look for opportunities throughout the year.
