Why use the FT?

Professors teaching all levels - from undergraduates to MBAs and executives - find the Financial Times to be an invaluable resource. As a global newspaper with a strong presence in the United States, the Financial Times views the world with a broad and penetrating perspective. It interprets the rest of the world to America - and America to the rest of the world. With its unrivalled reporting on international business news, rigorous yet concise analysis and hard-earned reputation for accuracy and objectivity, the Financial Times is uniquely relevant for use in a wide variety of courses.

Today professors across the country agree that the use of newspapers, magazines, the Internet and other non-textbook sources stimulates interest and involvement, providing a valuable adjunct to basic course materials.

Once considered supplementary, they have become an essential part of the core curriculum.
They can:

  • Generate lively class discussion by relating real world events to course work.
  • Supply back-up information and the most current data, complementing textbooks which can quickly become out of date.
  • Provide mini-case study examples that encourage more intensive course assignments and enhance core curriculum.
