Faculty
Mizzou faculty members love teaching, and our students love them back.
It should be no surprise our passionate teachers, many of them leaders in their fields, have won so many prestigious national awards, including Pulitzer Prizes, Fulbright Scholarships, National Science Foundation Career Awards and distinguished awards in music composition. Our brightest and nerdiest (a term of endearment) even compete for the title Nerd of Mizzou.
We honor excellence in teaching through awards and recognition, including our Kemper Fellowship program. And with a 19-to-1 student-to-faculty ratio, there’s a good chance you’ll get to know a beloved and lauded professor pretty well.
