The University of Michigan Medical School established the Diversity & Career Development Office (DCDO) in 2002.

The mission of the Diversity & Career Development Office is to promote diversity, and recruit diverse individuals, particularly from underrepresented and disadvantaged populations, and support their career development towards addressing health inequities.

Our vision is to foster a Medical School environment that:

• promotes and values diversity
• develops the expertise of individuals who will improve the health of historically disadvantaged and underrepresented populations in our community, the state of Michigan, the nation, and worldwide.
