- Faculty; On Campus

Dr. Massood Samii doesn’t allow rote memorization.
Instead, Samii, who teaches in the graduate and doctoral international business programs, is interested in his students’ opinions and challenges them to come up with their own ideas.
“I use cutting-edge materials and focus on the critical ways that students can build their own conclusions,” he says.
A former chief economist for the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, Samii is an expert on oil and energy. When not in the classroom, he often can be found researching and writing publications about oil and energy, foreign direct investment strategies, risk analysis and management.
“I like to challenge my mind and continuously focus on finding and discovering new things that are unique and not too many people know,” he says. “It’s exciting for me.”
“The faculty at SNHU possess a passion to encourage students to learn,” he adds. “This university is dynamic and innovative and it fits in to my idea of what higher education should be. My role is to continuously develop myself through research and bring innovative ideas to the students.”
