Meet Our Faculty

The faculty of the Department of Economics are engaged and accessible to students. We provide our students the benefit of our academic training in theory and our professional experience in practice. The lessons we share in the classroom are drawn as often from our own resumes and experience as they are from required readings.

Current students and alums alike note that what make our faculty distinctive is their accessibility. Our students and graduates also highlight faculty's ability to root all our courses in social justice and ethical management. Built on the mission of Emmanuel, our classes require students to intentionally consider questions of social justice and ethics.
