Diversity Recruiting & Contacts

 
The University of Rhode Island Career Services encourages employers to actively recruit diverse students at the University of Rhode Island, including students of color, students with disabilities, gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and questioning students, non-traditionally aged students, veterans, women, and international students.  18% of students registered with the Career Services office voluntarily identify themselves as a member of an underrepresented group.  Our office continues to outreach to additional members of URI's diverse student body.

Our recruitment team would be happy to assist you in your outreach efforts. In addition, we encourage you to include individuals and departments on this page in your recruiting outreach plans at the University:
