Organization for Cultural Diversity in Chemistry

P&G LECTURE SERIES



Mission Statement

The Organization for Cultural Diversity in Chemistry strives to create a close-knit community among the graduate students in the sciences, with an emphasis in cultural diversity through the underrepresented groups at UCLA. The primary goal of our organization is to engage its members in activities that will help project a positive portrayal of underrepresented groups in the sciences, not only to prospective high school and college students, and the public at large, but also to the academic and scientific community to which we have access. Thanks to the sponsorship of Procter & Gamble, we provide networking opportunities in both academia and industry by inviting well-known scientists, who belong to underrepresented groups, from across the country who are leaders in their fields in all divisions of chemistry and biochemistry. The quarterly Procter & Gamble Lecture is open to the scientific community and provides the setting for scientific and social interactions between students and professors by hosting receptions for all invited speakers.



The events organized by the OCDC are funded by:
