Graduate School

In a celebration of academic excellence and dedication, Baylor University recently hosted an awards luncheon at the Baylor Club to honor outstanding graduate students from various disciplines gathered to receive well-deserved recognition for their exceptional contributions to teaching, research, and dissertation work.

Over the last five years, Baylor's Graduate School has seen significant growth, attainment of R1 status, and a sustained investment in research expenditures—and the momentum is only beginning.

With the addition of Speight-Jenkins and Pinetree apartment complexes, the Baylor Graduate School adds 66 apartments beginning with the 2024-25 academic year. These new accommodations—near Baylor's campus and exclusive to graduate students—will provide a comfortable and supportive environment for academic success and personal growth. 

Patrick Leech is a fourth-year Ph.D. Candidate in History and recently named Fulbright Scholar whose research on Hungarian refugee resettlement provides insights into understanding the development of a global refugee resettlement network and US immigration policies.

The Baylor Graduate School is excited to announce eight recent PhD graduates who will stay with Baylor over the course of this year to gain an extra year of teaching experience before entering the open job market.

In libraries and laboratories, in archives and in the field, Baylor graduate students pursue scholarship and research that expand understanding, address complex problems, and advance the common good.
