One of one of only two private Research 1 universities in the state of Texas, along with Rice, Baylor is among an elite list of 39 private universities designated as R1 by the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education. Through top-tier research, scholarship and external funding support, R1 universities bring their voice to bear in addressing the world’s most significant challenges, with Baylor as a preeminent Christian research university infusing the quest for solutions, at the highest levels, with the University’s distinct voice and mission.
Today, Baylor continues to move forward under the Baylor in Deeds strategic plan, which was launched in Fall 2024 and aims to intentionally create a larger network of relationships across the globe, increasing student and faculty mobility and elevating Baylor’s research aims to global issues of high impact. Baylor in Deeds follows Illuminate, which resulted in transformative results across the campus and a strengthening of the University’s Christian mission. Some of the most notable outcomes include Baylor achieving R1 recognition three years ahead of schedule, significantly increasing the number of endowed faculty chairs, raising more than $1.5 billion via the Give Light campaign and opening signature buildings such as the Mark and Paula Hurd Welcome Center and the Paul and Alejandra Foster Pavilion.
With a student-to-faculty ratio of 15-to-1, Baylor students interact with outstanding full-time faculty – who deeply value teaching and mentoring – from their first days on campus through graduation while also pursuing research and scholarship at the highest levels.
