Economics Faculty and Staff

The economics faculty at CMU are more than subject-matter experts. They’re mentors, researchers and teachers who work closely with students to help them grow as analytical thinkers and problem solvers.

Because the department is smaller, students have more opportunities to ask questions, build relationships and receive individualized support throughout their experience. Whether you’re exploring economics for the first time or already thinking about graduate school and research, our faculty are ready to help you navigate what comes next.
