Since the first business degree was awarded in 1930 at Western Reserve University, innovation has been the driving force that has elevated the University's management programs to national prominence. Among these innovations are the nation's first Ph.D. program in operations research, one of the first academic divisions of management information systems, and the first integrated network of IBM personal computers for M.B.A. instruction.
The School of Management at Case Western Reserve University was created in 1967 through the federation of Western Reserve University and Case Institute of Technology. In 1980, in recognition of the support and achievements of Cleveland's entrepreneurial Weatherhead family, the school was named the Weatherhead School of Management. Enterprise Hall, the Weatherhead School's state-of-the-art facility, was completed in 1988.
Today, the Weatherhead School offers 21 academic programs leading to bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees, as well as certificate and executive education programs. Our students are an outstanding and diverse group, selected for their superb academic records, work experience and intellectual and personal attributes. This combination of excellence and diversity assures that the Weatherhead School will produce effective leaders for the regional, national and international business communities.
The school's 79 full-time faculty members, housed in seven academic departments, are distinguished for their commitments to both scholarship and teaching. Several faculty are recognized internationally for their contributions to select fields of management. Interdisciplinary research and teaching programs are emphasized at the Weatherhead School, particularly in the areas of health systems management, entrepreneurship and innovations management, and manufacturing strategy and technology.
The Weatherhead School has been recognized not only for innovation and excellence in its educational and research programs, but also for its specialized centers and programs, including the Center for Regional Economic Issues, Enterprise Development, Inc., the George S. Dively Center for Management Development, the Health Systems Management Center (with the School of Medicine), the Mandel Center for Nonprofit Organizations (with the Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences and the School of Law) and the Arts Management Program (with the Mandel Center for Nonprofit Organizations).
WEATHERHEAD SCHOOL OBJECTIVES
The Weatherhead School's mission is to educate the next generation of management leadership who will respond competently and confidently to the economic, social and organizational challenges of the 1990s and beyond.
The primary objectives of the school are:

3. To prepare students for careers in academic and research centers;
4. To enlarge understanding of the political, social and economic environment in which business plays its essential part in modem societies; and
