Full-Time Faculty

(Listed by Department)

Moravian’s strong curriculum is reinforced by a scholarly, dedicated faculty. The influence of the faculty on students is personal and immediate: Moravian faculty members—including the most senior—teach freshman classes as well as upper-level classes. And the scholarship and dedication of Moravian’s faculty creates a dialogue between teachers and students with far-reaching results.
