Center for InterculTUral Excellence (CIE)

Celebrating CulTUral Uniqueness was our response to the climate of diversity and inclusion at Tiffin University in 2016. We wanted to ensure that TU was a place where every student had a voice, could feel free to be themselves and be valued, and could celebrate their culture and their uniqueness on campus every day.


This initiative has grown into a commitment that has far exceeded our goals and not only do we graduate culturally competent students, but we have trained our faculty and staff, hosted phenomenal speakers, and created our own internal and external training programs. Furthermore, we have developed a curriculum that doesn’t just benefit Tiffin University, but other organizations as well.


Our aim is to continue to develop and grow our initiatives and strategic goals for The Center of Intercultural Excellence.
