Faculty members at La Sierra University are selected for their subject expertise, teaching effectiveness, and foundation of Adventist Christian faith. The small classes and discussion-oriented format demand faculty members who can not only impart knowledge, but also draw the very best out of each student. Most of our 100 full-time faculty members hold Ph.D. or terminal degrees in their fields. While faculty research and scholarship are important, the art of teaching is the hallmark of the faculty experience at La Sierra. Administrative and support staff at La Sierra assist students, faculty, alumni, friends and members of the larger community make their way through university processes and procedures. They are ready, willing and able to help with information in their areas of expertise.
