Dr. Joe Smolira
Associate Professor of Finance
I received my undergraduate degree in business from Wheeling Jesuit University in Wheeling, West Virginia. I've been a finance professor at Belmont since 1999.
My favorite part of finance to teach is mutual funds, because most people know about and invest in them at some point. As my students will tell you, I like to have fun in class but I still expect a lot. I usually go by Joe, as everyone gets stumped by Smolira. I am the faculty advisor for the Finance Club and Alpha Tau Omega.
If I'm not teaching or working, you can usually find me on a golf course.
