Our faculty are as committed to educating each student and supporting your intellectual and personal development as they are to providing the resources and personal attention you need and deserve.
Scholars, Mentors, Experts, Guides
Nothing sets Loyola apart more than the role faculty and other mentors will play in your experience here. In fact, few things will transform your life as much as the relationships you forge with professors.
On campus and off, faculty are constantly interacting with students—working alongside
them in laboratories, taking them on tours of local businesses, advising them on their
career options, listening to their personal concerns, even hosting groups of them
for dinner in their homes.
These people are your guides, mentors, personal advisors, and champions. Your confidants
when you need a listening ear. Your compass when you lose your way. They’ll know what you’re capable of—sometimes even better than you do—and will be personally
invested in your success. They will help you find your passion, gain the confidence
to pursue it, and build the skills and experience to thrive in your field. Their insights,
encouragement, and confidence in your potential will stay with you for the rest of
your life.
Ask any Loyola graduate what made the difference in their academic journey, and they’ll
not only tell you it was their professors; they’ll likely name a name and share a story, a specific example, of a meaningful relationship
with a faculty member who became a mentor, a trusted confidant, a friend.
