Converse faculty are the mentors you’ll call your own as a Converse University student. You won’t find access to these great minds anywhere else.
Our faculty are committed to providing transformative learning experiences for our students. They are also practicing professionals, international performers, and award-winning authors, artists, scholars and researchers.
