Inclusivity & Diversity at MIAD
Guided by our Core Value of Inclusion, to find strength in diversity, the Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design commits to maintaining an environment where its diverse community of students, employees, and guests are met with mutual respect and an appreciation of their individual differences.
Cultures of today are influenced in unprecedented ways, as technology accelerates change and introduces new media, educational attainment rises worldwide, and declarations of self-identity become the norm. Previously-unheard voices are finding platforms and audiences, allowing for greater appreciation and critique of the world we inhabit. MIAD is a part of this changing world, and the disciplines we study at MIAD give voice to an emerging collection of diverse, skilled, and empowered creative professionals ready to shape the world around them.
Here you will find resources for learning more about diversity and inclusion, information on upcoming events, and our Equity and Inclusion Action Plan:
