Darden faculty are consistently honored for their teaching ability. When not in class they devote their energies to better understanding the changing face of business and to participating in the Darden community. Over 80 professors teach in the MBA Program. Many worked in the private sector before coming to Darden and continue to consult. They also have significant experience working overseas and know first-hand how the globalization of business is affecting today's economy.
Darden faculty develop and write most of the cases used in the classroom.
But Darden faculty do not only find satisfaction in the dry routine of academia. These men and women love to teach and are passionate about what they study. As any student will tell you, having a professor who is enthusiastic about a class such as Accounting makes a big difference. Darden faculty don't compete over which field of study is more important. Good professors realize that each academic area deserves equal weight and collaborate to make sure their classes complement one another.
