Business school, even as a part-time student, is so much more than just the knowledge you gain.  It’s about the connections and relationships you establish with colleagues and professors.  Through our unique interactive program design, you’ll have the opportunity to build connections across the globe.

The connections begin at the first Kelley Connect Week in Bloomington, which serves as a kick-off to the program.  You’ll officially become part of the Kelley family during the Induction Ceremony.  Throughout the week you will have the opportunity to network with your classmates, the Kelley deans, faculty, staff, and Kelley alums. You’ll also begin your first class, X572, a class taught by a faculty team with over 75 teaching awards and headlined by Kelley Dean Daniel C. Smith.

Your connections will continue throughout the program.  Student leadership opportunities exist through the KD Student Advisory Board and the KD Women in Business.  Of course, there will be plenty of opportunities to network with classmates in your classes through discussion forums, live chats, and team assignments.

At the end of your Kelley experience you will not only have a degree from one of the world’s leading business schools, you will have the knowledge and network to truly own your future.
