The Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University (also known as Kellogg) is the business school of Northwestern University, located in the Chicago Metropolitan Area, Illinois. Founded in 1908, Kellogg is one of the oldest business schools in the world and has made significant contributions to fields such as marketing, management sciences, and decision sciences.
Schools such as Kellogg are responsible for the training of the cadre that runs all big corporations, with the encouragement of the psychopathic traits that are necessary to be successful.
History
Originally founded in 1908 as Northwestern University's School of Commerce, Kellogg was one of the 16 founding members of the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, the organization that establishes accreditation standards for business schools in the United States. Faculty members have made significant contributions to areas such as marketing and decision theory. For example, Walter Dill Scott, one of the pioneers of applied psychology, helped establish some of the earliest courses in marketing in the first decade of the 20th century.
In 1919, Ralph E. Heilman, a Northwestern University graduate with a PhD from Harvard, was appointed dean. The following year, Kellogg introduced a graduate program that led to the Master of Business Administration degree and attracted nearly 400 students in the first two years.
In 1951, Kellogg began offering its first advanced training courses. The success of the offer ultimately led to its spread to Europe, where a similar program has been offered in Bürgenstock, Switzerland, since 1965. In 1976, Kellogg expanded Evanston continuing exapnding its education offerings with the introduction of the Executive Management Program (EMP, now known as the Executive MBA Program). The opening of the James L. Allen Center, where the Kellogg continuing education programs are based, was a decisive step in this direction. Born from a vision of Dean Donald P. Jacobs (Dean from 1975 to 2001; Faculty member in the Finance Department since 1957), the Allen Center was able to rely on the support of important managers from the Chicago area, in particular James L. Allen, a Kellogg alumnus and co-founder of consulting firm Booz Allen Hamilton. After the foundation stone was laid in 1978, the Allen Center opened on October 31, 1979.
In 1956 the institution was renamed the School of Business, then in 1969 the Graduate School of Management. This also reflected the increasing demand for managers who have received training focused on both analytical and behavioral skills. The training was also geared towards general management skills rather than narrow individual skills, as was the case at many business schools in the 20th century.
In 1979, after a US $ 10 million donation from John L. Kellogg, the school became J.L. Kellogg Graduate School of Management. The additional funding enabled the school to significantly expand its research and teaching activities. Three endowed professorships, two centers for interdisciplinary research, four research professorships and a large student “living-learning center” were established. Even before that, the school had significantly expanded the research focus of its teaching staff, for example by establishing six additional professorships and two special research professorships in 1978. In 2001 the name of the school was shortened to Kellogg School of Management in order to better market the school as a brand.
In June 2009, Kellogg announced that Dipak C. Jain would step down as dean after eight years and return to teaching. On September 1, 2009, Sunil Chopra, the former Senior Associate Dean of Curriculum and Teaching and IBM Distinguished Professor of Operations Management, took over the role as interim dean while the dean selection committee began looking for Jain's successor.
Kellogg has an alumni network of over 60,000 graduates working in nearly every industry and endeavor. Alumni can participate in over 60 active regional alumni clubs and more than 20 special interest clubs. The Kellogg Alumni Council helps strengthen connections among alumni. In 2012, there were active KAC members in North America, Latin America, Europe, and Asia.
