OUR MISSION

iLIT is committed to equity and innovation. As a collaborative hub, our mission drives us to ensure that the field of digital technology bridges existing divides, remedies the systemic under-representation of minorities and other marginalized peoples, and innovates in ways that clearly advance the broad, global, public interest.

We do this by designing and offering innovative educational opportunities that invite our students to think and act critically about the intersection between technology and society. We empower our students to build careers in technology that will shape a more just and equitable future.

Many of those career paths are currently fraught with disparate challenges that can only be dismantled through systemic initiatives and commitment to change. Other emerging career opportunities are only now taking shape because of the rapid pace of technological innovation. We seize upon these challenges and opportunities through strategic initiatives and direct, practical programs that place our students at the forefront of change.
