Vision & History

The Arthur J. Samberg Institute for Teaching Excellence was founded in 2002 with a generous grant from the late Arthur J. Samberg ’67, who was chairman of Pequot Capital Management, Inc. and a long-time member of the Columbia Business School Board of Overseers.

Charged with promoting teaching excellence throughout the School, the Samberg Institute offers programs and resources to support faculty development, curriculum integration and teaching innovation.

The Samberg Institute reflects Columbia Business School’s commitment to strengthening teaching quality while building community. Distinguished faculty members and professional consultants in partnership with the Samberg Institute team members lead development workshops, coach individuals, and offer feedback on teaching skills and course content.
