About the Kellogg School of Management

The Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, founded in 1908, is widely recognized as a global leader in graduate business education. The school is home to a renowned, research-based faculty and MBA students from around the world.

Kellogg offers the Full-Time MBA program, a Part-Time MBA program, an Executive MBA program and the Executive Education Program. The school also offers three joint degree programs: the JD-MBA; MD-MBA; and Master of Management and Manufacturing (MEM-MBA).

Beginning in 1996, Kellogg established the Executive MBA Joint Degree Program in Asia, Europe, the Middle East and Canada. Kellogg partners include the Leon Recanati Graduate School of Business Administration at Tel Aviv University in Israel; WHU-Otto Beisheim Graduate School of Management in Vallendar, Germany; the School of Business and Management at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in China; and the Schulich School of Business at York University in Toronto, Canada.

Kellogg revolutionized graduate management education more than 50 years ago when it introduced executive education into its programming, being one of the first business schools to do so. In the 1970s, Kellogg again changed the face of graduate management education when it introduced the teamwork concept into its curriculum. Both the Kellogg executive education and teamwork models have been emulated by business schools worldwide.

In July 2001, Dipak C. Jain began his responsibilities as dean of the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University. Since assuming this role, Jain has traveled extensively throughout the world to reconnect with Kellogg alumni, recruiters, and corporate leaders to discuss how the Kellogg School's graduating students fit into today's business world.
