UMass Lowell Office of Multicultural Affairs

The Office of Multicultural Affairs (OMA) is uniquely positioned as a hub and a resource that services students, staff, and faculty from underrepresented backgrounds while leading diversity related efforts for the campus community. OMA's three-tiered model is grounded in:

Support & Advocacy: individualized support on personal, academic, and professional goals & advocacy in culturally affirming ways.

Education & Awareness: safe spaces and opportunities for dialogue, education, and awareness building that gives voice to all our identities and challenges our traditional ways of thinking and knowing.

Community Building: meaningful partnerships and collaborations that build upon and nurture a caring and inclusive community through service learning initiatives, leadership, knowledge-sharing and dialogue opportunities.
