Economics
 |
The Economics area leads the way business schools develop and apply economic reasoning to management through research, teaching, and curriculum development. Its world-renowned faculty members are engaged in cutting-edge research to develop and test new economic principles and to apply them to a variety of business fields and to public policy.
Economic principles are brought to bear in most areas of management. These include the strategic management of organizations, organizational design and incentives, human resource management, global management, decision-making, and entrepreneurship. In these and other areas GSB economists have pioneered new approaches, often working with colleagues in other disciplines, to produce research papers, textbooks, and curricula that provide the foundation for management education at Stanford and elsewhere.
The rigorous application of economic principles permeates the MBA, Sloan, and executive education curricula. The Economics area extends its impact beyond Stanford through publishing, by educating PhD students, and by influencing public policy.
