Distinguished faculty with significant real-world experience
Baruch faculty are among the most distinguished and most widely known in their fields. They combine outstanding academic credentials with significant real-world experience. Approximately 500 teach full time, with about 95 percent holding a PhD or other terminal degree.
Full-time faculty teach both entry-level and advanced courses and serve as advisors to student organizations and pre professional programmes. Adjunct faculty are typically drawn from New York City's business and professional ranks. Baruch employs another 700 administrative and support personnel. Faculty members are regularly recognized with fellowships, grants, and awards from many notable foundations and public agencies.
Members of the faculty throughout the college are recognized for significant scholarly achievements at Baruch's annual celebration of faculty scholarship and creative achievement. Such achievements typically take the form of published books or articles in top-tier journals, edited books or journals, major grants received, or exhibitions or performances.
