Diversity, equity, and inclusion are integral to Mayo Clinic's mission to provide excellent, culturally relevant care in a welcoming environment to patients from a wide variety of backgrounds and create an inclusive work environment where differences are valued, allowing individuals to achieve and contribute to their fullest potential. This commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion is woven into the fabric of Mayo Clinic—we embrace these values as we serve our patients, employees, students, suppliers, and communities.

We’re proud to work with some excellent organizations to promote diversity and inclusion, both at Mayo Clinic and in our communities.

Mayo Clinic partners with the NBMBAA to foster mutually beneficial relationships that offer resources and career opportunities for African Americans and diverse business professionals.

Mayo Clinic, in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), provides military service members who are within 180 days of separation from military service with internship opportunities in a variety of different roles.
