Detailed Descriptions We have formulated a diversity plan for the MPA program to better achieve the diversity goal and take actions to improve the diversity level in the following three areas: (1) Selection, recruitment and retention of faculty members, (2) Matriculation, admission, retention after graduation and subsidy of students, and (2) Student experience. Faculty Retention Strategy We assign mentors for new teachers, and provide relevant information of the staff association and the contact information of the association’s president and counselors. The teaching center and senior teachers can provide help for the course development of new teachers. The program leader or president will meet with new teachers on a regular basis to discuss issues they encountered at work and help needed. Other strategies to ensure that students obtain rich teaching experiences Invite guest professors and government officials with rich experience to give lectures.
