Descriptive Introduction to Physics

Sandra P. Epstein, author of Business at Berkeley: The History of the Haas School of Business (2016), will give a seminar focused on the history of the Business School and its relationship to the campus and to university business education. Not until the end of the nineteenth century and the ascension of more entrepreneurial university presidents, was attention directed toward forging stronger relationships with the business communities of the State and also to elevating the study of commerce to the scholarly levels of the campus community. The Haas School of Business’ upward trajectory from a “College of Commerce” to its top-ranked position today owes as much to its place as it does to its people and culture. Its affiliation with the Berkeley campus has ensured rigorous academic scholarship and research as well as placed it in the forefront of innovative developments in business, technology, and society. Sandra P. Epstein, Ph.D. is the author of Business at Berkeley: The History of the Haas School of Business (Institute of Governmental Studies Press, Berkeley 2016).
