Top profs help new faculty

Incoming Kellogg faculty participated in a two-day course showcasing cross-disciplinary collaboration and insights. The September program featured veteran Kellogg professors who taught versions of their own courses to illustrate classroom strategies that have proven effective in the MBA curriculum. Using case studies and lectures that ranged from finance and accounting to marketing and strategy, the program provided new faculty with content from different functional areas before they started teaching, while also imparting a sense of material covered throughout the school's core curriculum, said Sunil Chopra, senior associate dean for curriculum and teaching.
