Fresno Faculty

One of the strengths of the Alliant faculty is a balance between theory and application. Many professors actively practice their professions in addition to teaching. This practical orientation is reflected in the curricula at Alliant International University, which prepare students for active careers, Students often begin those careers with the help of professors who are established in similar professional areas.

The faculty members of the Fresno campus follow this model and embody dedication to graduate training programs in human service professions. Most of the members of the core faculty combine clinical practice, teaching and research activities.
