From its founding in 1870, Syracuse University has been the embodiment of Scholarship in Action-education that transcends traditional boundaries through a combination of innovative thinking, daring choices and entrepreneurial attitude. The iconic campus is nestled amongst the rolling hills of Central New York-itself a crucible of historic change and progress. Building on that foundation, SU continues to create opportunities for students and faculty to push limits, build pathways, and make connections that lead to new discoveries and transformational change.

Syracuse University employs over 4,000 faculty and staff and offers an outstanding and comprehensive compensation and benefit package. SU employees are offered a wide variety of educational, cultural and recreational opportunities while enjoying a diverse professional workplace. Highly ranked programs in such areas as the Newhouse School of Public Communications, the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs, and the School of Information Studies, among others, attract many of the best and brightest people.

SU maintains an inclusive learning environment in which students, faculty, administrators, staff, curriculum, social activities, governance, and all other aspects of campus life reflect a diverse, multi-cultural, and international worldview. The University community recognizes and values the many similarities and differences among individuals and groups.
