#Kellogg School of Management - Northwestern University RelatedKellogg employs 354 faculty members across six academic departments and five professional programs. This group of scholars and practitioners directs Kellogg’s 19 research centers, which cover a spectrum of topics from family enterprise and nonprofit management to healthcare and real estate, and support the four other research centers at Northwestern University. Curriculum Like most MBA programs, Kellogg employs a variety of teaching methods. The school reports that professors rely on team projects, case studies and lectures as well as experiential or simulation-based instruction. First-years at Kellogg are divided into eight sections of roughly 75 students and then into small study groups for their courses. MBA classes typically begin in early September and end in early June, with convocation taking place in mid-June. Kellogg works on a quarter system; full-time students take classes during the fall, winter and spring terms with most pursuing an internship during the summer term. Those enrolled in the One-Year program take courses during all four quarters. Within the academic year, Kellogg students have short breaks between quarters and for holidays such as Thanksgiving. During the first year of study, Kellogg students take nine core courses out of the minimum 20.5 courses required for graduation. The core covers foundational business principles in accounting, strategy, finance, marketing, economics, operations, statistics and management. Students are allowed to waive classes that overlap heavily with previous coursework or relevant work experience; a waived course is exchanged for an elective. During the second-year pre-term orientation period before classes start in the fall, all students are also required to take Leadership and Crisis Management, a half-credit course based on case studies and exercises in crisis simulation. Kellogg students must enroll in at least 14 elective courses, including a one-credit global management requirement fulfilled in any quarter by taking one of five courses or participating in a study abroad program. Moreover, all students may complete at least one major; historically, more than 80% of students double major and more than 50% meet the requirements for three majors. There are 19 major areas of study from which students can choose, including Innovation Entrepreneurship, Finance, Management Organizations, Management Strategy, and Marketing. Specific requirements vary for each major. Other MBA Degree Options In addition to its 22-month full-time MBA program, Kellogg offers a one-year accelerated MBA degree, a three-year JD/ MBA program with Northwestern Law, and a dual-degree Master’s in Engineering Management (MMM) program with the McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science. Part-time options include Evening MBA and Saturday MBA programs in Chicago and Evanston and Executive MBA offerings in Evanston and Miami, with opportunities to study abroad in Israel, Germany, China and Toronto.
