    As an employee of USC, you will be a part of a world-class research university and a member of the "Trojan Family," which is comprised of the faculty, staff, and students that make the university a great place to work.


    As a community of Dornsife College "we are committed to the creation, preservation, and communication of fundamental knowledge in all its well as a lifelong passion for learning and a commitment to the betterment of society." The academic mission of Dornsife College can only be realized to its fullest potential when we build and protect a representative, equitable, inclusive culture of scholarship for students, faculty, and staff.

    This is not done through initiatives but by embedding these values into the everyday interactions, relationships, policies, and practices of the College.
