The new dean of the Yale School of Management, Edward A. Snyder, officially took the helm today (July 1) as dean and the William S. Beinecke Professor of Economics and Management
Snyder, who previously served as dean at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business and the University of Virginia Darden School of Business, is an economist with expertise in industrial organization and antitrust economics. He succeeds Sharon M. Oster, who has served as dean since 2008 and will return to the Yale SOM faculty and resume her role as a teacher and scholar.
“I first became interested in coming to the Yale School of Management because I think this school is phenomenally well positioned to train the kinds of leaders the world needs for the balance of this century,” said Synder in a statement marking the beginning of his term as dean.
