MBA professors dispense economic insight?

Tagged Under : , , , , , ,

Being in an MBA program what with all that is going on in the economy, some classmates and I are kind of wishing that our professors would give more insight into the economy and how it affects the realities of business.  We feel that, in the shelter of the program, the MBA professors can offer insights from the real-world or even academic explanations for some of the current events, so that we can better understand what is going on & effectively lead when we get out!

Of course while my management & statistics instructors may not have much to offer & it would take all of our courses off track, why does my accounting professor talk more about it the current state of things than my economics professor… hmm?? I do have one project of “Fed watching” but as the economy seems to be doing everything in reverse, things it has never done before, this hasn’t led to much explanation or insight into the economic events.

That being said, regardless of course content, an MBA program is supposed to be about reality-based education…what better reality is there than an unstable economic system (wait, did that come out wrong?)

I hope that in the course of our time in the program (& with the dollars we are spending), we can get a little more insight as our economy (hopefully) progresses!
