Faculty and Staff

Our faculty team comprises a mix of 22 tenure-track finance faculty, one business-law tenure-track faculty, four clinical faculty, 20 senior lecturers (includes part-time and full-time) and about 15 adjuncts each academic year. This diverse group excels in research and teaching, making significant contributions to their fields and the classroom.

Our tenure-track professors are renowned financial economists. During the 2019-2023 period, the department stood 6^th globally in finance research based on the number of publications per capita in the top three finance journals, Journal of Finance, Journal of Financial Economics, Review of Financial Studies, according to Olin Business School Center for Finance and Accounting Research (CFAR) rankings. Notably, Professor René Stulz has surpassed 110,000 citations on Google Scholar, underlining the strength of our faculty’s influential research. Awards like the college’s PaceSetter Faculty Research Award and the University's Distinguished Scholar award further recognize our faculty's research excellence. They also bring their research insights into the classroom, enriching students' learning with real-world applications.

Our clinical faculty and senior lecturers focus intensely on teaching, contributing significantly to both undergraduate, graduate, and Executive Education programs. They hold leadership roles, innovate in educational methods, and have received numerous awards for their teaching prowess. Their commitment ensures our students are well-prepared for leadership roles in finance, benefiting from cutting-edge learning experiences that blend traditional and digital approaches.
