  • What do you want students to take away from your classes? What do you want them to learn?

    As a teacher, I would like my students to take away a complete and well-organized body of knowledge in economics and finance, the ability to reason constructively through a sequence of logical steps, and the capability to translate theory into real-world practice.

  • What advice would you give to those considering the online MBA program?

    An MBA has long been considered one of the most predictable paths to success. Many MBA graduates benefit not only from a return on investment through salary increases, but also from in-depth knowledge, skills, and abilities for future professional success. SOU online MBA program provides students with considerable advantages, among which the most prominent one is the freedom to complete a graduate degree around career and family obligations (e.g., the ability to pursue an MBA while maintaining a career; completing and receiving an MBA without relocation; flexible scheduling options that balance school and work; and the online learning environment that is always available and accessible).

  • What is the one book you think everyone should read?

    Irrational Exuberance by Robert Shiller.
