Law School Dean Blogs About the JD-MBA Program

Hi Everyone, just passing along a recent blog post from new Law School Dean Dan Rodriguez. Recently the Dean wrote a post about the collaborations of the law school and business school here at Northwestern. He specifically mentions the alignment of the business and legal world and discusses the JD-MBA program and how it’s at the forefront of the business world today.  The article is short, but given it’s relevance to the JD-MBA and MBA world, I wanted to repost it here.

See below for the blog post:

Kellogg School of Management: kudos and collaborations

By Dan Rodrigues

Northwestern’s Kellogg School of Management is one of the crown jewels of the University and its reputation for innovation and excellence has been long recognized regionally, nationally, and globally.  In the able hands of my visionary colleague, Dean Sally Blount, KSM has mapped out a multifaceted strategy for reaching new levels of prominence.  This article in Crain’s Chicago Business sketches this agenda crisply.  And Dean Sally’s blog, on the blogroll to the right, provides more detail.

Our Law School is proud of our historic connections with Kellogg.  Graduates of our joint JD/MBA program populate leading firms and organizations around the globe.  These alums are changing the world with their distinct interdisciplinary training in law and business.  The demand for this three-year program, the first of its kind in that format, is immense and we are making good strides in improving the student experience.

Moreover, we are working actively to develop collaborative Law-Kellogg initiatives both in Chicagoland and across the world, initiatives which will build on the expertise of our two faculties and will respond to the imperative of a complex economy and a diverse, well-wired society.

Stay tuned for more news on our joint ventures!

We are grateful to Dean Rodriguez for posting this thoughtful article about the JD-MBA program.

Stay tuned on more updates from Dean Dan Rodriguez.
