North Carolina Central University seeks to attract and maintain an outstanding faculty of individuals who are capable of contributing to the enrichment of its educational and research programs. The University's faculty members come from all sections of the United States as well as from several foreign countries, bringing to the campus a rich diversity of training and experience. Of the approximately 250 full-time faculty, more than 70 percent hold the highest earned degree in their fields. In addition to the primary responsibility of instruction, faculty members actively engage in research and other creative pursuits. Research interests are widespread among the various disciplines and the faculty eagerly competes to bring grants to the University. Much of this research results in books, scholarly papers and presentations at professional conferences, bringing acclaim both to the individual faculty members and to the University. Faculty members are also encouraged to participate in the activities of the community at large as well as the University community. Many participate in government, business, educational, artistic and other endeavors which enrich the Durham community.
