Faculty
The power of ideas is critical to our culture and value system. An intense, exhilarating climate of discussion and debate attracts the best minds to the Chicago Booth faculty. Students have the advantage of learning from leaders and innovators in many fields — statistics, economics, psychology, and sociology. Collaboration flourishes across disciplines, generating new and better ideas. Those ideas flow quickly into the classroom as fuel for fresh, dynamic courses and excellent teaching, and help shape better public policy and business practices.
