Our faculty apply an innovative, multi-disciplinary, research-based approach to developing and testing new theories and educating the next generation of leaders.
Our marketing department has produced dominant textbooks in three key areas of marketing: marketing management, channels of distribution, and sales promotions. The marketing faculty serve as editors at leading academic journals, including Journal of Consumer Research and Management Science. The Kellogg faculty also includes three former presidents of the Association of Consumer Research, the leading academic organization for behavioral research.
