Biography
UCLA Anderson School of Management
Professor John Mamer has been a member of the UCLA Anderson faculty since 1981. In addition to his prolific research and the numerous courses he has taught in Anderson’s full-time, Fully Employed and Executive MBA programs, Mamer has served the school in a variety of administrative capacities, including a term as interim dean from 1997 to 1999. Currently, he serves as chairman of the faculty. “The role of an administrator is — above all else — to foster faculty creativity in all areas: teaching, research and community service.”
Mamer admits to a fascination with practical applications of mathematical modeling, an interest that has led to specializing in applying math and computer science to problems in management. He has also contributed to the development of large-scale models and software for production and distribution management for major U.S. corporations. “I’ve always been interested in uncertainty, in studying decision-making behaviors,” he says. “This has driven my interest in game theory and applied economics.”
