UrduThe Forbes seventh annual list created with market research firm Statista elevates CSUF to No. 283 from its No. 425 rank in 2023.
“I’m really proud of Cal State Fullerton for being recognized for our DEI initiatives,” said Cecil Chik, Assistant Vice President of Human Resources, Diversity and Inclusion and Chief Diversity Officer. “It shows our unwavering commitment to not just an inclusive place to learn but to work as well.”
Forbes’ rankings are based on survey results from people working at large employers with more than 1,000 employees. Survey participants evaluated more than 1,300 employers’ diversity, equity and inclusion practices, and the 500 companies with the highest scores made the final list.
The practices included accountability and communication, representation such as the percentage of women in leadership roles, internal initiatives and external involvement. In 2023, Statista surveyed more than 45,000 participants for these rankings. This year, the number of survey participants more than tripled to 170,000 participants.
