Health Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion

Recognizing that the full diversity of the American population is not represented by the physician workforce, the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine is committed to the recruitment and retention of a diverse class of students.

About Us
The Office of Health Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion, led by Dayle Davenport, Associate Dean for Health Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion, works to ensure a supportive academic environment for underrepresented minorities at our school. Among the nation's highest-ranked medical schools, the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine has achieved one of the most diverse student populations.

The Office of Health Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion provides support and programming for all students, as well as initiatives specifically dedicated to underrepresented students in medicine (URiM). See below for more!
