The Department of Religion at Princeton is committed to creating a welcoming and supportive environment for students, faculty, and staff from all backgrounds to work, learn, and teach. We affirm that diversity enhances our intellectual and professional lives and commit to working to recruiting and supporting a diverse community. We recognize that creating and sustaining an inclusive environment is an ongoing process. We seek to foster an approach to the study of religion that offers critical tools for understanding how ways of thinking, social practices, and structures can impede the creation of a diverse and inclusive intellectual and professional community. We aim to provide critical resources for those in our field who seek to engage in practices that support diversity in various forms, both within the academy and beyond.

Princeton University is committed to equal opportunity and non-discrimination. To maximize excellence, we seek talent from all segments of American society and the world, and we take steps to ensure everyone at Princeton can thrive while they are here. That is the sole rationale and purpose of our diversity and inclusion programs, all of which are voluntary and open to all, and which comply with federal and state non-discrimination laws. Princeton does not discriminate on the basis of race, sex, ethnicity, color, national origin, religion, disability, or any other protected characteristic, and Princeton does not provide special benefits or preferential treatment on the basis of a protected characteristic.
