Faculty
Fuqua boasts some of the world's most renowned researchers and thought leaders. These are not austere and inaccessible educators, however. The Duke MBA faculty members are as "real" as the students with whom they share the Fuqua experience. Fuqua professor and best-selling author Dan Ariely is even known to anthropomorphize an apis mellifera to illustrate a point.
