Management Overview

All organizations, large and small, need managers. They effectively lead, coordinate and communicate innovative solutions in all aspects of an organization from operations to human resources. Manages are adaptable leaders with strong roots in analytics, complemented by solid communication skills that help their organizations compete in the business world.  The characteristics of Krannert graduates are a strong work ethic, analytical strengths and good communication skills.

A multi-functional approach to coursework allows you to discover different business areas at the same time like finance, strategy, law and organizational behavior. You’ll refine your critical thinking, communication and analytical skills as you explore these different aspects of business. Students can add concentration areas to focus on specific interests.

Graduate pursue many different careers. Some begin in corporate management rotational programs, as account executives or as project managers and proceed to start their own businesses.  Some go for the C-suite job and become CEOs and CFOs.  You will find Krannert management graduates in companies like Boeing, General Motors, IBM, Amazon.com, Google, United Technology, Purdue University and Target Corporation.
