Equal Opportunity

At WVU, we value our workforce and are proud of our community of faculty, staff and students. The Talent and Culture HR Operations unit strives to ensure Equal Opportunity Employment at WVU.  This oversight includes; but is not limited to, compliance in regard to recruitment and hiring practices. 

We strive daily to foster an environment where all are able to pursue their goals and aspirations. As part of this continuing commitment, WVU places a strong emphasis on ensuring equitable employment strategies and increasing awareness of employment opportunities among the University, local and regional communities.
