Faculty

In keeping with the principle of "For the Industry & By the Industry," the faculty is drawn from the industry wherever possible. Industry veterans and practitioners alike form a part of the faculty as Professors of Practice or Adjunct Faculty. They bring decades of leadership and real-world experience, ensuring students learn the discipline from those who set the standards in the financial and accounting sectors.
