Many MBA applicants feel that they are purchasing a brand when choosing a business school, but the educational experience is what is crucial to your future, and no one will affect your education more than your professors. Each Wednesday, we profile a standout professor as identified by students. Today, we focus on?Joseph Stiglitz?from Columbia Business School (CBS).
A 2001 winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics and a member of the National Academy of Science, Joseph Stiglitz?(?Globalization and Markets and the Changing Economic Landscape? [EMBA])?is executive director and founder of the Initiative for Policy Dialogue at Columbia University. Before joining the CBS faculty in 2001, Stiglitz was chief economist for the World Bank (1997?2000) and a member of the U.S. Council of Economic Advisors under President William J. Clinton (1993?1997), serving as the council?s chairman from 1995 to 1997. Stiglitz is the creator of a branch of economics called ?Economics of Information,? whose central concept?which examines how intuitions such as the stock market process and relate information?helped earn Stiglitz the Nobel Prize. He has authored a number of books, the most recent of which is entitled Freefall: America, Free Markets, and the Sinking of the World Economy (W.W. Norton & Company, 2010).
