Over 400 Rochester graduates hold faculty positions in schools and programs ranked among the top 25 in the nation. Included are representatives of almost all of the University's doctoral programs. A substantial number of graduates have appointments at each of several Ivy League schools (e.g. Harvard, Pennsylvania, and Columbia), other prestigious private universities (e.g. Johns Hopkins, Duke, and Northwestern), and the best public institutions (e.g. UCLA, Michigan, and UC-San Diego).
Among those with Rochester Ph.D. degrees are the deans of Harvard Medical School, the University of Michigan Business School, and the Graduate Division of UC-Berkeley. Over two dozen alumni are department chairs or program directors at such schools as Yale, Dartmouth, Cornell, Chicago, and North Carolina. Five dozen graduates hold named chairs, including faculty at Cal Tech, Stanford, MIT, and Princeton.
A list of Rochester alumni on the faculties of these highly ranked schools follows. They are grouped by the institutions at which they have appointments. Their academic titles and Rochester Ph.D. program disciplines are also specified. The list reflects up-to-date information as of the summer of 2007. (Faculty members in the "top 25" programs at the University of Rochester are not included in this list.)
