You deserve the best teachers.

Yes, we're proud of our faculty at UMM. We're proud of James Cotter's national Presidential Award for Excellence in Science, Mathematics and Engineering Mentoring. We're proud of how frequently David Hoppe's work on deformed frogs is quoted in scholarly journals and national publications. We're proud of 'Doc' Carlson's famed jazz ensembles, of Eric Klinger's research on daydreams, of John Ingle's art and Vicki Graham's poetry and our high rate of tenure. But we may be proudest of our faculty's excellence in teaching.

The University of Minnesota rewards superior contributions to undergraduate education with its prestigious Horace T. Morse Award. 12% of these awards have gone to Morris campus faculty, who comprise only 2% of the University's full-time teaching staff. Perhaps that's why UMM graduates report the highest levels of student satisfaction at the University, praising the accessibility of Morris faculty and the excellence of teaching in both introductory and advanced courses. They note a sharp increase in their critical thinking and problem-solving skills after studying and conducting research with faculty on a campus that boasts the highest percentage of students graduating in 4 years or less.
