Fostering Inspiring Faculty

Investments in our faculty pay big dividends in the teaching and mentoring of students, quality of innovative research and scholarship, and overall strength of our University.


Inspiring faculty

Faculty in the new data analytics master’s degree program have teaching and research resources they need to develop the curriculum, thanks to gifts from supporters such as Mark A. Zurack ’78, LHD ’03, of the Mark Zurack and Kathy Ferguson Foundation, and Jay S. Benet ’74 and his wife, Jeanne.

The Lois B. DeFleur International Innovation Endowment supports faculty travel, research and other activities associated with innovative projects to promote global awareness. Thank you, past University President Lois B. DeFleur!
