"Krannert has taken a very proactive approach to corporate ethics and instilled into the first-year curriculum. We have the opportunity to learn about ethics through case studies in operations, strategy, and marketing classes, and also through a series of lectures by outside professionals"
Trisha Palmer, '06 |
Krannert understands that learning about business should include more than lectures - and that working right goes beyond the bottom line. We want you to become not only a good manager, but also a good corporate citizen.
Partners in Responsibility
A shared commitment to ethics and responsibility underscores our corporate relationships. You'll study cases and examples from real-world business situations, including those that have failed. You'll have the chance to work with companies on special projects and discuss ethics with noted executives. While our faculty provides academic theories, guidance, support, and information, Kranner's corporate liaisons supply the hands-on, day-to-day, in-the-trenches details and experiences.
