About Us

Dean's Welcome

The Kelley School of Business is an extraordinary place at a truly extraordinary point in its history. Just as we work to transform lives, organizations, and society through business education—and have since the first business class was offered at Indiana University in 1830—we also believe in transforming ourselves. The business world constantly evolves, and so should business education. Building upon our tradition of excellence, we offer you an incredible future with:

  • A state-of-the-art renovation and expansion of our undergraduate facilities, adding new high-tech classrooms, a multi-level commons, and expanding the building’s footprint by nearly 90,000 square feet
  • Innovative business programming from our in-residence MBA Academies to our online and executive programs to our newly revised undergraduate curriculum
  • A diverse and passionate student body who embrace a challenging Kelley education that includes global, experiential, and team-based learning 
  • Award-winning faculty renowned for their ground-breaking research and dedication to teaching
  • Top-ranked career services offices dedicated to your professional development and personal growth

I invite you to study and learn in Kelley’s revered culture of collaboration where globalization, entrepreneurship, and the highest ethical standards meld to demonstrate that business knowledge can be more than a means to personal success … it can foster positive social change in our communities and the world around us. Be a part of that change and discover the endless possibilities a Kelley education can provide to you.
