KELLOGG SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT


The 'Kellogg School of Management' ('The Kellogg School' or 'Kellogg') is the prestigious business school of Northwestern University located in Evanston, Illinois and downtown Chicago, Illinois. Kellogg offers full-time, part-time, and executive programs, as well as partnering programs with schools in China, India, Hong Kong, Israel, Germany, Canada, and Thailand, granting the M.B.A and Ph.D.
Founded in 1908 in downtown Chicago as a part-time evening program, the school was chartered to educate business leaders with "good moral character." Kellogg pioneered the use of group projects and evaluations and popularized the importance of "teamwork" and "team leadership" within the business world.
Kellogg has historically been ranked as one of the top business institutions in the world by BusinessWeek, U.S. News & World Report, The Economist Intelligence Unit, and other business news outlets. Alumni from the Kellogg school hold leadership positions in for-profit, nonprofit, governmental, and academic institutions around the world.

History


The school, originally founded in 1908 as Northwestern University's School of Commerce, a part-time evening program, was one of 16 founding members of the American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business, the organization that sets accreditation standards for business schools. As one of the organization's original members, the school later played a major role in helping to establish the Graduate Management Admission Test, the standardized test that is use to assess the intellectual prowess of MBA applicants. In addition, faculty associated with the school have made landmark contributions to fields such as marketing and decisions sciences. For instance, Walter Dill Scott, a pioneer in applied psychology, helped establish some of the earliest advertising and marketing courses in the first decade of the twentieth century. He went on to serve as president of Northwestern University from 1920-1939. More recently, Philip Kotler and Sidney J. Levy's groundbreaking 1969 Journal of Marketing article, "Broadening the Conception of Marketing," laid the foundations for a greatly expanded understanding of marketing. Similarly, Kotler's Marketing Management text has played a key role in deepening the field's scholarship.
In 1951, Kellogg began offering executive education courses. The Institute for Management was a four-week summer program based in Evanston, expanded the following year to two sections. The program's success eventually led to it being expanded in Europe in 1965 with a similar program offered in Bürgenstock, Switzerland. In 1976, the school expanding its executive education offerings in Evanston, including introducing a degree-granting program known as the Executive Management Program (EMP, today known as the Executive MBA Program). A watershed event in the school's history was the opening of the James L. Allen Center, home of the Kellogg executive education programs. The vision of legendary dean Donald P. Jacobs (deanship 1975-2001; on faculty in Finance Department since 1957), the Allen Center enlisted the help of significant business figures in the Chicago-area, most notably James L. Allen, a Kellogg alumnus and cofounder of consultancy Booz Allen Hamilton. The Allen Center's cornerstone was laid in 1978 while the facility officially opened Oct. 31, 1979. It remains a state-of-the-art management education facility.
In 1956, the school was renamed as the School of Business; little more than a decade later, in 1969, the school once again changed its name--to the Graduate School of Management, a designation that reflected the demand among the business community for sophisticated managers trained in both analytical and behavioral skills. In addition, this training was oriented toward general management, rather than narrowly functional skills, as had largely been the case in many business schools for much of the 20th century. The training was designed to provide management skills suitable for leadership roles whether in the corporate, public, or nonprofit sectors - rather than careers focused solely on traditional business. To reflect this change, the school in 1969 stopped issuing the MBA credential in favor of the MM, or master of management degree. A point of differentiation for nearly three decades, the school more recently returned to the traditional MBA.
These dramatic changes were predicated upon a key change under Dean John Barr (1965-1975): In 1966, Northwestern elected to discontinue its highly respected undergraduate program (the ''School of Business'') so as to focus its energies solely on graduate education. In so doing, the school decided to pursue a research-based faculty, quickly attracting a number of world-class quantitative experts, many in the field of game theory, to build the school's renowned Managerial Economics and Decision Sciences Department, founded in 1967 and initially led by Professor Stanley Reiter.
In 1979, in honor of a $10 million gift made to the school on behalf of John L. Kellogg, the school was renamed as the ''J.L. Kellogg Graduate School of Management.'' The funds allowed the school to significantly expand its research and teaching mission by establishing three endowed professorships; two major centers of interdisciplinary research; four research professorships; and a large student rooming facility designed as a living-learning center. Even prior to the Kellogg gift, the school had been bolstering its research-based faculty: In 1978 alone the school added six additional "named" professorships and two new research professorships. In 2001, in an effort to solidify the school's brand, the name was shortened to the ''Kellogg School of Management."
While Kellogg is distinguished overall for its graduate business programs, its reputation is particularly notable in marketing. It has been consistently ranked as the leading program in marketing among graduate schools of business by Business Week and the Wall Street Journal, among others.

Students and culture


Kellogg offers 'Full-Time MBA,' 'Executive MBA,' and 'Part-Time MBA' programs. The Kellogg School's Full-Time MBA programs include the traditional Two-Year MBA program (known as the ''2Y Program''); the accelerated One-Year MBA program (known as the ''1Y Program''); the Master of Management and Manufacturing (MMM) program, a joint program with Northwestern University's Robert R. McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science; and the JD-MBA program, taught in conjunction with Northwestern University Law School.
The 'Part-Time MBA' programs include the standard Evening MBA as well as the recently-created 'Saturday Part-Time MBA' program, which is designed for students who travel during the week for work.
The 'Executive MBA' program consistently ranks as one of the worlds top EMBA programs and is offered as a joint degree with the Schulich School of Business at York University which is ranked as the top business school in Canada (The Economist 2006), the WHU-Otto Beisheim School of Management, one of the top ranked business schools in Germany, Tel Aviv University's renowned Recanati Graduate School of Business Administration in Israel, and The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. In addition to its highly-successful MBA programs, the school also offers a 'PhD program'.
Regardless of which program they enroll in, the school's students are part of a culture that is famous for its emphasis on teamwork and leadership skills. Much of this reputation is driven by the School's operational model, which provides a plethora of opportunities for students to lead initiatives on behalf of the school. Many aspects of the school, from admissions decisions, to admitted students weekend, to orientation week, to the annual conferences and events that the school hosts, are organized and led by students.
Because student leadership is such an integral part of the school, Kellogg was the first business school in the world to insist that all applicants be interviewed to assess their leadership potential and suitability for the Kellogg School's cooperative environment. As a result, in addition to grades, GMAT scores, professional achievement, and demonstrated leadership, 'fit' is an important part of the admissions equation at Kellogg. Admitted students are expected to be high-achievers as well as team players, and to embrace the concept of 'co-opetition' (cooperation and competition). Kellogg graduates are reputed to be exceptional team leaders, and the school is particularly regarded for its spirited and collaborative culture that emphasizes business rigor and relevance, while also affording students a wide range of educational and social experiences designed to develop leadership and professional skill.
