Peters, who employs a similar approach to teach writing in his English courses.
He says he was inspired by the methodology of fellow LMU colleague, Dr. His innovative teaching approach – Applied Financial Modeling with Peer Critiques – equips students with the ability to not only compute results, but to communicate them effectively to employers. “It’s special because it comes from the biggest organization of finance professors in the country, so to get that kind of recognition from your peers is great.” “My career goal is to make LMU the world’s leading institution in Entertainment Finance,” said Offenberg, who still feels surprised and humbled by his win. In any given semester, half of his students land jobs or internships – most recently at industry leaders such as Marvel Studios and Lionsgate Entertainment. Launched in 2014, Offenberg’s course is results-oriented with an eye toward industry networking, helping both students and entertainment executives identify qualified applicants for entry-level positions. Offenberg was selected based on his work in his “Entertainment Finance” course – the only one of its kind offered to undergraduate finance students in Los Angeles. Hailing from Phoenix, Arizona, Offenberg’s efforts recently won him the Financial Management Association’s (FMA) Innovation in Teaching Award, widely considered the most prestigious honor for finance professors in the country. Associate Professor of Finance David Offenberg calculates success in the classroom by enriching students with hard knowledge and the business savvy sought after by employers.
