Academic Spotlight
TRIDENT FACULTY
Diverse. Compassionate. Well Rounded.
The overall strength of Trident University’s
faculty is their combined academic and professional experiences enhanced by their cohesive commitment to student success. This provides a student experience that is second to none.
Our faculty come from across the globe, like Argentina, China, Israel, South Korea, India, and, of course, the United States. Some bring experience from their education at Harvard and Stanford, while others achieved degrees in an online setting as military service took them from one corner of the globe to the next.
Trident’s faculty are truly scholarly practitioners. They include seasoned professionals who worked for well-known organizations such as the United States Armed Forces, Department of Homeland Security, Cedars-Sinai Hospital, the Clinton Foundation, and the Los Angeles Department of Health. They’ve studied Ebola in West Africa, have spoken in front of the United Nations, and have served as expert consultants for major television networks.
They also include researchers with scholarly work featured in journals such as Science Signaling, Real Estate Economics, and Feminist Economics. Additionally, they are in-demand speakers at conferences hosted by respected organizations like the American Marketing Association, the Clute Institute, and the Americas Conference on Information Systems.
If there is a common thread that links the experiences of these talented men and women, it’s the diversity of the skills and perspectives they bring to students.
Their commitment to intellectual and professional growth is rivaled only by their commitment to the success of their students. Those who are truly well-rounded know that the potential for insight can come at any moment, in any interaction, through any session or class.
Our Professors are well-rounded, curious, and active. They know that teaching is a two-way street where learning is done on a daily basis. Trident’s students, who are equally diverse, have as many questions as answers, and are invaluable to creating a shared experience that creates a one-of-a-kind learning environment. This leads to unrivaled learning outcomes for our students.
It’s an environment that we believe helps students go further than they ever thought possible.
