The Kellogg School of Management is the business school of Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois. Kellogg is ranked as one of the best business schools in the nation, and its MBA program is in the top 20 rankings of many media outlets, such as U.S. News & World Report and The Economist.

 

Founded in Chicago as a part-time evening program called the School of Commerce in 1908, and later renamed in 1979 in honor of John L. Kellogg, the school was a founding member of the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, an organization that sets business school accreditation standards. It also helped to institute the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT). In 1920, the school began offering a graduate program for a Master of Business Administration degree, and followed with executive education courses a few decades later. 

 

Presently, Kellogg offers the traditional two-year full-time MBA program, in addition to a one-year program, an executive MBA program, dual degree programs (the MMM, which confers both an MBA and a Master of Engineering Management degree from the McCormick School of Engineering, and the JD-MBA, in conjunction with Northwestern University’s School of Law), a part-time MBA program, a doctoral program, and executive education classes. The school has over 1,100 postgraduate students enrolled with about 150 academic staff.
