 The 145
members of the Maxwell faculty are distinguished not only
for their research and publications, but also for their
excellence in teaching. The roster includes eight Guggenheim
Fellows, six American Council of Learned Societies Fellows,
17 Fulbright Research Fellows, 12 National Endowment for
the Humanities Fellows, and one MacArthur Fellow.(Available
online: an exhaustive list of
faculty honors, awards, and
titles.)
In
a typical year, Maxwell faculty members publish dozens of
books and monographs and hundreds of book chapters and journal
articles. Their work
provides up-to-date material for the classroom. A steady
stream of grants from private foundations and public sources
flows to Maxwell faculty members and research centers.
Graduate students become deeply involved in such
scholarship, initially as apprentices and ultimately as
partners.
Teaching
at the Maxwell School is highly regarded. Faculty members work
closely with students as mentors and as advisors. During the past two
decades, 37 Maxwell faculty members have been honored with
Syracuse University’s highest award for teaching and scholarship, the
Chancellor’s Citation for Exceptional Academic Achievement.
Syracuse University also recognizes teaching excellence in the
annual naming of two
Meredith Professors; in only the past few years, five Maxwell
teachers have received this honor.
Many
professors have practical experience in the
world of public and international affairs. Their teaching
effectively combines theory with practice and brings fresh
insight into current issues in public policy and public life.
With their extensive networks, faculty members play a strong
and influential role in placement and career counseling.
