Faculty members play a key role in building the unique Ivey learning experience by creating an exciting classroom environment and supporting individual students academically, professionally and personally. Years after graduation, alumni find the words of favourite professors echoing in their ears as they face key business decisions. Many remain in close touch with these extraordinary mentors and "leader breeders."
