Across the schools

Who teaches what.

396 professors at 16 schools, grouped by what they work on.

Every seminary publishes its own faculty. None of them publishes the others'. If you are trying to work out where the people in your field actually are — or whether a field you care about is taught anywhere at all — this is the view that has been missing. Start with the subject, not the school.

How to read this, and how far to trust it

Subject areas here are drawn from each person’s job title and, where a school publishes one, their own bio. Titles carry roughly half the signal: a professor of church history whose title says nothing about Methodism may teach the only Methodism course on campus. Treat a name here as a lead worth an email, not as the last word on what someone works on — and treat an empty area as “not found in what these schools publish,” not as “not taught.”

This covers the 16 schools profiled so far, out of the 37 the University Senate has approved. A school missing from a subject below may simply not have been profiled yet. See which schools are covered.

Thin ground

These subjects have six or fewer people across all 16 schools. If one of them is your reason for going, the choice of school may already be made for you — and it is worth writing to those people before you apply.
