Our commitment to engagement and belonging
At the Tippie College of Business we are committed to being a place where members of our community feel valued—where we lift each other up, rather than tear each other down. We are unwavering in our commitment to an inclusive mindset, through promoting opportunities for engagement and belonging for our people, in our practices, and in our programs.
Featured initiatives
BizEdge
Since 2017, the Tippie College of Business BizEdge program has empowered a diverse set of learners and particularly students from underrepresented or under-resourced populations through mentorship, scholarships, business networking, alumni events, and more.
We have many resources available to help you make connections, navigate your student journey, and excel in your major.
Dore Emerging Leaders Fellowship Program
The Dore Emerging Leaders Fellowship Program is part of the Dore-Tippie Women’s Leadership Program at the Tippie College of Business. We inducted our inaugural class of Emerging Leaders in 2020-2021 and invite a new class of freshmen each year.
“I was never pushed to think of myself at a higher level. But the Tippie Gateway program gave me the confidence to dream bigger.”
