Founded in 1889, the University of New Mexico sits on the traditional homelands of the Pueblo of Sandia. The original peoples of New Mexico Pueblo, Navajo, and Apache since time immemorial, have deep connections to the land and have made significant contributions to the broader community statewide. We honor the land itself and those who remain stewards of this land throughout the generations and also acknowledge our committed relationship to Indigenous peoples. We gratefully recognize our history.
The Department of Dermatology at the University of New Mexico is committed to providing a diverse and inclusive environment for our workforce, whether performing direct patient care, conducting research, or providing administrative support.
We believe diversity is an important contributor to the continued success of our department.
As we participate in caring for thousands of patients each year, we strive to create a provider population that reflects the diversity of our patient population and of the communities we serve.
The School of Medicine at UNM HSC is celebrated for its innovations in medical education and has earned a reputation for making diversity in the physician workforce a priority. We as an institution value community engagement, as evidenced by our national recognition in rural and family medicine training programs and our groundbreaking BA/MD Programs that provide pathways for students from urban, rural, and tribal New Mexico to pursue a medical career. The Department of Dermatology is committed to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion and uses these standards as measures of excellence.
The University of New Mexico is committed to hiring and retaining a diverse workforce. We are an Equal Opportunity Employer, making decisions without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, veteran status, disability, or any other protected class.
We at the University of New Mexico Department of Dermatology are committed to excellence through inclusion, diversity, and equity in our workplace and our community. We strive to bridge any gaps in equity in patient care, research, education, and community. To us, a diverse environment is one that includes ethnicity, gender, gender identity, age, religion, race, language, level of ability, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, size, culture, geographic region, and others. We aim to maintain an environment that respects and includes our differences whether we are students, faculty, staff, or the people we serve. When workplace diversity and awareness of health inequities increases, health and well-being of all New Mexicans also increases
Our residency program promotes diversity, equity, and inclusion, and advocates for communities of color through these initiatives:
