THE JOHNSON SCHOOL AT CORNELL UNIVERSITY

The Johnson School, founded in 1946, is Cornell Universitys graduate school of management. The Johnson School combines leading edge intellectual capital with “real time, real world” business practice — preparing leaders for a dynamic world – and is among the top business schools in the United States. The school is distinguished by a diverse, multinational community working closely within a small, interactive and intensely collaborative environment.

Johnson School Cornell UniversityAt the Johnson School, we believe leadership is not simply taught; it must be learned  through experience. Our programs offer a wide variety of opportunities for experiential learning, such as immersion courses and student-run venture capital and equity funds. Programs include MBA and doctoral degrees, a twelve-month MBA option for students with advanced degrees in science or engineering, and an executive MBA.

Located at the center of Cornell University – the largest of the Ivy League schools and one of the world’s top research institutions – the Johnson School offers the benefits of a small, personal community while leveraging the vast resources of Cornell. Students work closely with each other and the faculty, developing longstanding relationships. At the same time, they can take advantage of Cornell’s many other schools and units – from Industrial & Labor Relations, to Law, to Asian Studies.

The Johnson School at Cornell is committed to increasing the availability and visibility of minority executive talent in business. “Cornell embraced diversity more than a century before the word became popular,” notes Angela Noble-Grange, director of our Office for Women and Minorities in Business.

Johnson School Cornell University StudentsAt the Johnson School, we strongly feel that success depends on conceiving a compelling vision, developing a persuasive voice, and gaining access to a powerful network that helps you shape your career. Our commitment to vision, voice and access has a simple aim: affecting the future of business. “We’re enriching the pipeline for talented minorities in business from secondary school to the corporate boardroom,” explains Dean Robert Swieringa. “In order for real change to happen, our commitment has to be for the long term.”
