Equitable Community Engagement

The Mandel School is home to nine research and training centers, including three Centers of Excellence, and First Year Cleveland, a transformative community movement dedicated to reversing infant and mother mortality. Our reach is local, national and international.

We foster equitable research and training collaborations and provide opportunities for students to participate in all aspects of the research process.
