Some Stellar Personal Web Pages of Finance Profs...
- David Backus
- Excellent material on fixed income, including a book in progress and several downloadable papers.
- Jonathan Berk
- Interesting papers, but the best parts are the narrated lectures in Lotus Screencam where Mr. Berk explains various ideas in finance. Really neat. But he's just put all finance profs out of a job!
- Aswath Damodaran
- Very helpful spreadsheets, lectures and data for those interested in valuation. This is probably the single best place to go if you actually are working on a real world corporate finance project.
- Sanjiv Das
- Entertaining essays, some interesting working papers and what appears to be a very practical course.
- James Bradford DeLong
- Rich with material, some provocative. Plus a complete set of thoughtful lecture notes to accompany Brealey & Myers
- Phil Dybvig
- Page with the blues. Plus there's some superb course and programming materials if you dig.
- William Goetzmann
- Papers, courses and the Learning Curves.
- Campbell Harvey
- WWWFinance course outstanding. Embraces video, Java and quality content. Much more. An oasis. Is this the single best web page put together by any finance educator? Probably so.
- Craig Holden
- Pretty basic page. But the free Excel teaching "movies" are a hit.
- Jonathan Karpoff
- No s___, you've got to read the short stories. This page has personality!
- Richard MacMinn
- One of the first and one of the best. Great links, personality and outstanding course materials + tech.
- Bernt Oodegard
- Lots of material, most interestingly Financial Numerical Recipes with all the C++ code you'll need to get going. Quant Central.
- Pamela Peterson
- Can you find an undergraduate course with better web-based content? You literally do not need an intro finance textbook with the material available here.
- Bill Schwert
- Class material and links excellent. Plus, you can download some unique historical time series.
- William Sharpe
- A very good online book on investments. You'll also find some detailed and useful Javascript applications.
- Robert Shiller
- An eclectic and interesting set of materials on real estate, people and the stock market.
- Paul Spindt
- Elvis lives! Particularly in the MBA classroom. On the other hand, Elvis' server still seems to be in the 1950s.
- P. V. Viswanath
- Very good course materials plus personality.
- Ivo Welch
- IPO review very interesting. Entertaining stories of scrapes with computer vendors. Also has an e-mail address directory and several databases.
