One first-year student we interviewed referred to Siegel as \u201cTHE professor at Wharton.\u201d Siegel, who has taught at the school since 1976 and is the Russell E. Palmer Professor of Finance, combines his expertise with a passion for teaching. The long list of teaching awards he has received includes\u00a0<em>Bloomberg Businessweek<\/em>\u2019s Best Business School Professor (worldwide) accolade in 1994. In addition, Siegel\u2019s expertise gives him almost unparalleled street cred in the eyes of Wharton students\u2014not an easy lot to win over on the topic of the stock market. At the beginning of each class session for his macroeconomics course, Siegel pulls up live market data and quickly interprets what is going on in the markets that day. Interestingly, even students who are not enrolled in this course commonly stand at the back of the room to watch this summary.<\/p>\n<p>Siegel has been recognized often for his writings, having won numerous best article awards, and is a bestselling author. The\u00a0<em>Washington Post<\/em>\u00a0named his book\u00a0<em>Stocks for the Long Run: The Definitive Guide to Financial Market Returns and Long-Term Investment Strategies<\/em>\u00a0\u201cone of the ten-best investment books of all time.\u201d And in 2005,\u00a0<em>Bloomberg Businessweek<\/em>\u00a0named another of Siegel\u2019s works,\u00a0<em>The Future for Investors: Why the Tried and the True Triumph Over the Bold and the New<\/em>, one of the best business books of the year. Also in 2005, Siegel received the prestigious Nicholas Molodovsky Award from CFA Institute, awarded to \u201cthose individuals who have made outstanding contributions of such significance as to change the direction of the profession and to raise it to higher standards of accomplishment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>For information on other defining characteristics of the MBA program at Wharton or any of 16 other top business schools, please check out our free\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/shop.mbamission.com\/collections\/insider-s-guides\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em><strong>mbaMission Insider\u2019s Guides<\/strong><\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many MBA applicants feel that they are purchasing a brand when they choose a business school.
