Shaping Business Theory and Practice

DePaul University business professors are industry experts whose research impacts not only academic thought and student learning, but also business practice and public policymaking. From tracking local housing trends to studying white-collar fraud, our faculty are at the forefront of today's pressing business and societal issues.

Our professors rank among the world's most prolific scholars of business education research, according to two studies presented at the Academy of Management’s 2016 annual meeting. Among approximately 1,900 institutions surveyed internationally, our faculty ranks:

  • No. 2 for producing research about marketing education, and
  • No. 6 overall for generating business and management education research.
