Office of Equity

The Office of Equity at the Medical University of South Carolina exists enterprise-wide to monitor federal and state compliance, improve equitable culture and engagement, and encourage inclusive excellence. Our team is dedicated to increasing inclusivity, equity, and belonging across our campuses and regional health networks.

This month, we observe Women in Medicine Month and Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15-October 15). MUSC proudly celebrates all women who serve in medicine, including our workforce, faculty, and students and honors their contributions to our organization, community, and nation. MUSC also proudly recognizes and applauds the contributions, influences, and achievements of our Hispanic and Latino/a/x/e workforce, students, and faculty as well as those throughout the nation. As we celebrate, let us commit to building awareness, knowledge, and understanding across cultures and teams.

We invite you to acknowledge Women in Medicine Month and Hispanic Heritage Month individually and with your teams and colleagues. We also encourage you to be flexible, inclusive, and receptive as we seek to further our OneMUSC strategic goal of becoming the preeminent model for inclusion and equity nationwide.
