In addition to teaching, student advising, governance, and participation in McCormick community events, faculty members are active in their academic fields through publishing and professional societies.
Faculty members are also active in the life of the church locally, nationally, and internationally.
The McCormick faculty is intentionally diverse. Its diversity includes gender, ethnicity, national origin, and denomination. Several faculty members speak languages in addition to English. The academic preparation and commitment to excellence, the multilingual capabilities, and the various forms of diversity found in the faculty support both the McCormick student body and the educational mission of the seminary. The McCormick faculty enjoys and fosters an open and collegial spirit.
