Professorships

Support Educational Distinction Across Generations

Dedicated scholars, each highly distinguished in her or his respective field, Barnard faculty members are at the same time outstanding teachers and mentors who consistently demand rigor and creativity from their students. Supporting Barnard’s faculty by establishing an endowed professorship is one of the most important and gratifying ways that donors sustain the promise and legacy of Barnard.

Visiting Professorships: $1.5 million                                   

Yields approximately $75,000 annually to defray costs of transportation, housing, and stipend for a visiting scholar to spend a term at Barnard.
