Each year Stanford Graduate School of Business welcomes new tenure-line faculty and lecturers to enrich programmatic offerings and elevate the diversity in faculty thought leadership. Additionally, Stanford GSB also introduces new elective courses for second-year MBA students and Sloan Fellows.

First-year MBA students’ curriculum is set to courses to develop general management perspectives and foundations, while second-year students focus almost exclusively on electives. For Stanford GSB’s one-year MBA for experienced professionals, Sloan Fellows take one quarter of general management foundational courses, and the remaining three quarters include electives.

Below is a listing of the new faculty and elective courses.

New Tenure-Line Faculty

  • Juliane Begenau, assistant professor of finance
  • Bart Bronnenberg, professor of marketing

  • Stefan Wager, assistant professor of operations, information & technology
