Diversity analysis
For further information on the University’s work to support equality and diversity, visit Equality and Diversity.
Until 2011/12 the University had dedicated equality schemes covering race, gender and disability. The annual reports on these schemes contain further equality data and can be viewed at Public Sector Equality Duty.
In response to the introduction of the Public Sector Equality Duty in April 2011, the University will move to an integrated equality report, to be published in January each year.
A priority for the University’s equality and diversity work is to address the under-representation of female research and academic staff in science and medicine through the achievement of Athena SWAN best practice awards. For details see Athena SWAN at the University of Oxford.
