MSU Foundation Professors

Established in 2014 by the MSU Foundation, the title of MSU Foundation Professor is awarded to exceptionally accomplished current and incoming faculty members who are recommended for the honor by the dean of their college. These talented researchers are leaders in their disciplines, advancing specific areas of scholarly need, disciplinary development, or research or creative emphasis at MSU. Awardees retain the title of MSU Foundation Professor for the duration of their service at MSU and typically receive scholarly support for the first five years after receiving the award.
