The Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern is a global
business school with a mission to educate, equip, and inspire
leaders who can build strong organizations and wisely leverage the
power of markets to create lasting value. Founded in 1908, the
Kellogg School of Management has been a pioneer within its field
from the beginning, becoming the first business school to launch a
one-year MBA program in 1965 and in 1969 introducing the team-based
learning approach, allowing students to solve problems by
leveraging the diverse viewpoints of their peers. Then, in the same
year it was named, Kellogg opened a continuing-education center—the
first of its kind—which today hosts more than 6,000 executives each
year. The Kellogg School of Management offers an MBA program at
three unique campuses—Evanston, Chicago, and Miami. It also offers
one of the largest exchange programs for full-time, as well as
evening and weekend students. Kellogg students are offered the
opportunity to learn about business from different perspectives,
experience diverse cultures, and network with others from around
the world at one of 25 partner schools. For Kellogg School of
Management students working towards an Executive MBA, there is the
opportunity to earn their degree at one of several campuses across
the world. The EMBA is not only offered on the Evanston and Miami
campuses, but at partner institutions in Beijing, Hong Kong,
Toronto, and Vallendar, Germany as part of the Kellogg Executive
MBA Global Network. Kellogg boasts an impressive full-time
employment record, with 97% of graduates receiving an offer within
three months of graduation.
