Meet Our Faculty

Our faculty are famous for having equally strong commitments to teaching and to undertaking scholarship that matters. In fact, the Iowa Law faculty is nationally recognized for its scholarly productivity and well-known for its interdisciplinary interests. A number of faculty members have Ph.D.s, and the faculty publishes regularly in history, social science, and general humanities journals as well as traditional law reviews.

Our faculty list includes members of the full-time faculty as of the fall semester of 2022. The list includes those temporarily away on visits to other institutions, on reduced teaching loads, and on phased retirement. Separately listed are members with emeritus status; adjunct and visiting faculty who are scheduled to teach during the 2022-23 academic year, or have taught during the previous two academic years and are expected to have a continuing relationship with Iowa Law; and our courtesy faculty who hold complimentary appointments at the College of Law as of the fall semester of 2022.
