FACULTY DESKTOP REPLACEMENT

Do not miss your chance to get your new computer. Please click on this link to set an appointment at your earliest convenience.

AI LUNCH & LEARN EVENT

This fall, we will host a Lunch and Learn event for our faculty and staff, and this year’s focus will be on the integration of AI in academia. The event will explore AI tools and examples of how to integrate them into the curriculum. Several Jones College of Business professors will showcase how they are using AI-powered tools in their courses and
teaching practices. This will be a valuable opportunity for faculty to share their experiences, collaborate, and brainstorm new ways to incorporate AI into their classrooms. As universities everywhere prepare students for the AI era, this event will help position our JCB faculty community at the forefront of this important movement.

DATA RESOURSES

The College of Business has invested in state-of-the-art data sources available to both faculty and students. These resources, such as Wharton Research Data Services (WRDS), Compustat, Center for Research in Security Prices (CRSP) and Capital IQ, can be utilized for research or integrated into classroom learning. For more information on how to access and make the most of these tools, please contact us.

is funded by the Jones College of Business and Technology Access Fee funds.
