Chicago
Campus
Wieboldt
Hall
Northwestern’s
Chicago campus is a series of several buildings occupying
a 20-acre lakefront site near the business and financial center
of the city on Chicago’s near north side. On this campus
are the School of Law, the Medical School, the McGaw Medical
Center of Northwestern University, the School of Continuing
Studies and the Kellogg School's Part-Time
MBA program.
The main
offices of the Kellogg School's Part-Time MBA program are
on the second floor mezzanine of Wieboldt Hall at 340 East
Superior Street, in Chicago.
The Part-Time
MBA program facility houses 17 classrooms and 20 rooms for
group study, as well as faculty and administrative offices.
Libraries
The
Schaffner Library, on the second floor of 340 East Superior
Street, was established as a special library in economics
and business in memory of Joseph Schaffner, a Chicago businessman,
Northwestern University trustee and strong supporter of continuing
education.
The library contains
approximately 110,000 volumes and pamphlets. More than 1,000
periodicals and serial publications are currently received.
The library tries to acquire all materials needed in connection
with the courses offered and, although it is not considered
a research library, it facilitates re-search by providing
available bibliographic aids.
A student
identification card is issued to each student shortly after
registration. This card entitles the student to library privileges
at the Schaffner Library and at the University Library on
the Evanston campus, one of the largest university libraries
in the United States. Students also have access to libraries
in the Chicago area and to specialized materials throughout
the world through the Interlibrary Loan Program.
Information
Technology Services
A
robust and constantly expanding infrastructure gives students
the technological tools they need to complete their course
work and participate in extra-curricular activities. Students
with laptops can access the Kellogg network via both wireless
and wired Internet connections throughout the building. The
Kellogg School’s computing lab at 340 East Superior
Street provides students with computers, printers, scanners
and other specialized resources, and the school’s intranet
site offers a wealth of resources for classroom work as well
as club and extracurricular activities.
Incoming
students can take advantage of Web-based preparatory courses
in math, accounting, microeconomics and statistics. The TeamNet
system provides students working in study groups with confidential
peer evaluations of their team skills, and mailing lists
and discussion groups enable clubs to communicate among members.
Kellogg
requires all Part-Time MBA students to have access to a computer
with Internet capability. Students are expected to register
for courses and access course work online. To help students
make effective use of the necessary computing applications,
the program offers a required technology workshop for all
new students. Beyond this introductory class, workshops are
offered throughout the year. These sessions focus on the applications
used at the Kellogg School. |
