[quote=Anonymous]Lots of research universities hire professors based on the quality of their research and the amount of grant funding they can potentially bring to the university. They may teach one undergraduate course (more likely to teach graduate level courses) each semester but teaching is secondary to research. These schools sometimes have professors whose only job is to teach larger introductory type classes but they are likely nearing retirement or are only on appointments that last for a limited time. Other schools are more focused on building their reputations as having professors who are great teachers who will interact directly with undergraduates often providing even more education. There are a handful of schools that try to balance these attributes.[/quote]
