Inclusive Excellence at NC State

Inclusive Excellence (IE) at NC State is an initiative initially funded by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (read about IE@NC and HHMI) that fosters a growing community of NC State students, faculty, administration, and staff who are intentionally engaged in the pursuit of inclusive excellence in higher education. This community recognizes that our success as educators and our excellence as an institution depends on how we value and engage with all members of our community — faculty, staff, and students with a wide range of backgrounds, interests, and goals.

The IE at NC State Initiative supports personal and professional development, creates opportunities to build community, and promotes efforts to work together across boundaries of all sorts.  We encourage all members of the Wolfpack family to identify and remove arbitrary barriers (interpersonal, systemic and cultural) that impede inclusive excellence throughout higher education.
