This spring, Dean Sharon Oster launched a new speaker series for SOM faculty to present their latest work and its impact on the world of management. The series is designed to provide SOM students with a view into faculty research efforts that they might not normally encounter in the MBA classroom.

Videos of the talks will be added to this page as they become available.
