Join us in recognizing Delta's Rising Professors of 2026! 🎉

Congrats to the current and incoming assistant professors our community nominated as truly exceptional. These individuals were recognized for the quality of their research, teaching, mentorship, community involvement, and industry impact.

These are the people that truly push the frontier, carefully mentor their students, and have incredibly strong research taste in their domain. We are honored to play a small role in recognizing them.
