ucALGARY CIDE
Chemists for Inclusivity, Diversity & Equity
LATEST NEWS - STEM UNITY
We have successfully piloted STEM Unity Experience in August 2024!
This program is championed by Alejandro J. Cuellar De Lucio and will introduce undergraduates to research in academia and industry. Aimed at inclusivity, retention, and empowerment, it supports first-gen, low-income, non-traditional, transfer and underrepresented STEM students. Addressing GPA limitations, the initiative provides hands-on lab experiences, emphasizing practical skills and problem-solving. The program, grounded in the benefits of diversity, promotes inclusivity in internships and recognizes neurodivergence and diverse work situations, contributing to a more equitable and successful STEM community.
Our MISSION

We provide personal and professional development initiatives, including networking events and workshops. CIDE is actively involved in community outreach, we strive to cultivate positive change, progressively enhancing our environment
