We are a comprehensive University with a national reputation in science, engineering and technology, and committed to educating students for lifelong success in a diverse world and conducting research and outreach activities that sustain the economic, environmental and social health of the region. In February of this year, a campus-wide strategic planning initiative was launched to reposition UMass Lowell as a world-class institution over the next decade. A major component of that initiative is to ensure that diversity and pluralism is in every aspect of our strategic plan. We seek a diverse talented candidate pool to be part of our mission and achievements.
