Welcome to Kellogg

Many years before I stepped into the Office of the Dean, Kellogg helped me find my intellectual voice.

As a doctoral student at Kellogg more than 20 years ago, I was able to combine study in psychology and economics and explore those topics with some of the best minds in the country. I was struck by Kellogg’s unique ability to put the study of markets and the study of management on equal footing. As an alumna, I observed Kellogg redefine what it meant to be a strong and mighty competitor in business research and education.

Today as dean, I view Kellogg as a business school like no other. It has a world-renowned faculty and partner schools all over the globe. It has a reputation for innovation that is second to none. And most importantly, it still has that spark — that exhilarating sense of great things to come.

I have no doubt that much of this future innovation will come from our PhD students. As you learn rigorous research methods and hone your critical thinking skills, you will work closely with faculty experts across disciplines to become that next generation of thought leaders.

The future of business scholarship is coming. We hope you’ll help us write the next chapter...

Best,

Sally Blount
