The Teaching Scholar

Santa Clara University cultivates and supports a dedicated faculty of teaching scholars to educate its ~9,000 undergraduate and graduate students. Santa Clara’s teaching scholars pursue lines of inquiry at the frontiers of knowledge and forge creative works that inspire and challenge, bringing passion, rigor and context into their teaching. They engage their students in high-impact experiential learning and exhibit the habits of mind, heart, and imagination that inspire Santa Clara students to lead lives of meaning and purpose.
