The Economics Department is Columbia's largest department, I think.

Top professors include Jeffrey Sachs, Joseph Stiglitz, Xavier Sala-i-Martin, Edmund Phelps, and Glen Hubbard, and what Econ major could possibly forget Sunil Gulati or Susan Elmes.

It currently doesn't have its own building, but this will change with the completion of Prentice Hall. Most faculty currently have offices on the 10th floor of IAB.

The department has recently been expanding greatly. In 2005 it hired 20 professors at once.
