Cohen, who joined Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS) in 1990, will become professor of business at Columbia University’s Graduate School of Business on Jan. 1, the firm said.

In a statement, the company said Cohen played a critical role in expanding its global investment research franchise, with leadership positions including chief U.S. strategist and president of the Global Markets Institute, Goldman’s public policy center.

“She has been an influential presence at the firm and across the financial industry,” said Jan Hatzius, head of the global investment research division and the firm’s chief economist.
