Diversity of Faculty Gives Fresh, Global View of Business
"I believe that one of the greatest strengths of the department is the diversity of our professors. We have educators from all over the world who have had a wide variety of experiences to share. There is not one management professor I haven't liked. When I graduate and look back at my time here, I will be proud to say that I had one of the best departments because it was filled with such amazing people."
Lara Weisbach, Class of 2016, Human Resource Management
