Economics Faculty
Our faculty are particularly adept at teaching students to apply the principles and theories that serve as the foundation for understanding how markets work. More importantly, they emphasize the application of economics to a wide range of contemporary issues. Students and teachers in the department have a long tradition of working together to investigate questions and conduct joint research on issues of mutual interest. The faculty and curriculum work to prepare students for the dynamic thinking and collaborative problem-solving environments that characterize contemporary organizations. Learning in our department is socially interactive, where students and faculty gather often outside of class, whether it is to consider the themes of our discipline or to share a meal at one of our homes.
