The department鈥檚 Diversity Action Plan is based on the principles elaborated in the Fisher College of Science and Mathematics Diversity Action Plan and on the Towson University Commitment to Diversity webpage.

Diversity Action Plan Goals

Of the Fisher College goals, the department will develop additional plans in the areas of faculty recruitment, faculty retention and student retention.

Faculty recruitment

The department will develop a list of diversity-oriented sites for job posting and seek guidance from the National Consortium of Higher Education on strategies for dealing with the 鈥渢wo-body鈥� problem in faculty hiring.

faculty retention

The department will encourage women and minority faculty to join female- or minority-oriented professional societies and seek funding for membership dues.

student retention

The department will publicize, publish in course syllabi, and include on laboratory safety signature sheets its laboratory policy for pregnant students. A binder with MSDS data for chemicals used in laboratory courses will be completed.
