What’s New at Kellogg School of Management

school-kelloggThis fall has been a busy and energizing time thus far at Northwestern’s Kellogg School of Management, so I thought I’d share just a few of the highlights here on the blog.

In early October, my alma mater hosted the 2014 Kellogg Marketing Leadership Summit, an invitation-only event that brought together more than 100 prominent senior executives, Kellogg faculty, and thought leaders at McKinsey & Company and Egon Zehnder to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing chief marketing officers at companies such as McDonalds, Target and many others.

During that same time, President Barack Obama visited Northwestern’s campus to speak about the economy with Kellogg students. “There is a reason why I came to a business school instead of a school of government,” Obama told the gathering. “I actually believe capitalism is the greatest force for prosperity and opportunity that the world has ever known.”

Kellogg also announced the expansion of its newest degree track, the Russell Fellows Program’s M.S. in Management Studies (MSMS), by opening admissions for July 2015 enrollment to accredited schools outside of Northwestern.

Kellogg is the first top-tier business school to develop a master’s program of this kind in response to strong demand. Designed to help recent graduates launch their careers, the program focuses on teaching foundational management skills and offers access to a dedicated career coach.

Finally, with $58 million in new gifts, Kellogg is celebrating a banner fundraising year for the Transforming Together campaign.This brings the total raised to-date to $225 million, and has propelled the school ever closer to its $350 million goal.

There’s tons of exciting things happening at Kellogg School of Management, so I invite you to read more about these recent events by following the links above.
