 I take it as an investment to have
access to very knowledgeable
professors. Not just academics, but
also those who have been in the
field. There’s context of what they
have done on the ground, and
putting that perspective of
different markets over and
beyond leading US markets and
also emerging markets.

University

Columbia University was founded in 1754 as King’s College by

royal charter of King George II of England. It is the oldest
institution of higher learning in the state of New York and the fifth

College briefly became a state entity and was renamed Columbia
College in 1784.

Columbia administers the Pulitzer Prizes annually; 84 Nobel

laureates have been affiliated with the University as students,
faculty, or staff— the second most of any institution in the world.
Columbia is one of the 14 founding members of the Association
of American Universities and was the first school in the United
States to grant the MD degree. Today, the University operates
Columbia Global Centers overseas in Amman, Beijing, Istanbul,
Mumbai, Nairobi, Paris, Rio de Janeiro, Santiago, and Tunis.

Notable alumni and former students of the University and its

predecessor, King’s College, include:
5 Founding Fathers of the United States
9 Justices of the United States Supreme Court

About
Columbia
Business
School

Columbia Business School is the business school of Columbia University. It was

established in 1916 to provide business training and professional preparation for
undergraduate and graduate Columbia University students. It is one of six Ivy
League business schools, and its admission process is among the most selective of
top business schools.

Columbia Business School is one of the world’s leading business schools and prides
itself on its excellent faculty, who provide students with superior knowledge and
thought leadership across divisions and disciplines. Its location in New York City and
strong ties to industries offers students access to top business minds, and the
diverse community spans sectors and nations, making an impact in small start-ups
as well as established industries.

Columbia Business School is perhaps best known for value investing and the seminal
work completed in that area by professors Benjamin Graham and David Dodd. It is
affiliated with 13 winners of the Nobel Prize in Economics, including current
professors Robert Mundell, Joseph Stiglitz, and Edmund Phelps— more than any
other business school in the United States. The school has an international
emphasis, and many alumni have achieved distinction in the public as well as the
private sector.
