Our Commitment
SIUE is committed to equal opportunity in all aspects of employment. The University has a comprehensive Affirmative Action Plan, including plans specifically tied to increasing the number of employees with disabilities and veterans in accordance with federal and state regulations.
EOA serves as a resource in promoting and furthering the University’s commitment to equal opportunity and non-discrimination. The office works to support the University’s strategic goal of respect and its efforts to advance a diverse and inclusive campus community. To that end, EOA provides information and support to ensure all hiring provides equal opportunity to candidates. Search Committees should review the Inclusive Hiring Toolkit for tips on how to ensure an equal opportunity experience for all.
Additionally, the Equity Consultants Team (ECT) is a cohort of four faculty and staff commissioned by SIUE leadership to guide search committees in fulfillment of the strategic plan, as well as state and federal regulations. To request support from the ECT for your search, email equityconsultants@siue.edu or call 618-650-5640.
