A Professor of Practice is an experienced professional appointed to a faculty position in a higher education institution, primarily to teach and share their practical expertise with students. Unlike traditional professors, Professors of Practice are hired based on their professional experience and reputation rather than solely on academic credentials.


    Key Responsibilities:
  • Teaching and Mentoring: Professors of Practice teach courses, mentor students, and provide practical insights into their field of expertise.
  • Industry Connection: They often serve as a bridge between academia and industry, bringing real-world experience into the classroom.
  • Curriculum Development: Professors of Practice may contribute to curriculum development, ensuring that courses are relevant and aligned with industry needs.

  • Academic Qualifications:

    While there is no one-size-fits-all answer, here are some general guidelines:

  • Bachelor's Degree: A bachelor's degree in the relevant field is typically required, although some institutions may consider candidates with significant professional experience.
  • Master's Degree: A master's degree can be beneficial for advanced positions or specialized fields.
  • Professional Experience: Substantial professional experience, often with a national or international reputation, is essential for a Professor of Practice role.
  • Teaching Experience: Some teaching or mentoring experience is often preferred or required.

  • Rankings and Requirements:
  • Assistant Professor of Practice: Typically requires a strong professional background and some teaching experience.
  • Associate Professor of Practice: Requires a national reputation, demonstrated teaching effectiveness, and senior-level professional experience.
  • Professor of Practice: Requires a national or international reputation, significant teaching experience, and leadership positions in their field


  • Yes, a holder of a Professor of Practice position can be called a Professor. In academic settings, the title "Professor" is often used to refer to faculty members who hold positions such as Professor of Practice, Adjunct Professor, or Clinical Professor.

    Common Usage:
  • Formal Settings: In formal settings, such as academic publications, conferences, or official university communications, the full title "Professor of Practice" might be used to clarify the individual's role and expertise.
  • Informal Settings: In informal settings, such as in-class introductions or casual conversations, it's common to refer to a Professor of Practice simply as "Professor" followed by their last name.

  • Context Matters:
  • Academic Institutions: In some institutions, the title "Professor" might be reserved for traditional tenure-track faculty members. In others, it might be used more broadly to include Professors of Practice.
  • Field-Specific Conventions: Different fields or disciplines might have varying conventions for addressing Professors of Practice.
