Purdue University鈥檚 Krannert School of Management is a heavyweight in the MBA universe, especially when it comes to its 鈥渁reas of strength: quantitative methods, operations, finance, and economics.鈥 Those looking to develop a 鈥渟trong analytical and quantitative background鈥 can hardly go wrong with a Krannert MBA. Best of all, at state school prices, Krannert 鈥減rovides a great return on investment.鈥 But it鈥檚 not just the school鈥檚 low tuition that lends Krannert a kinder bottom line. As one student explains, 鈥淢any of us are actually doing this program at almost no cost thanks to the number of scholarships and assistantships [on offer]. This is very unique for a top MBA program. My friends at Wharton, MIT, Tepper, etc. are paying way more!鈥

Krannert excels even outside its quantitatively-focused standout disciplines. Students encounter a faculty experienced 鈥渋n every aspect of management, from operations and finance to marketing and HR鈥 here. But Krannert鈥檚 academic excellence comes with high expectations. Academics are tough; there鈥檚 a 鈥溾榥o BS鈥 atmosphere here. Here you are expected to 鈥榳ork hard, work right, and work together.鈥欌 MBAs assure us that Krannert 鈥渨ill push everyone to the limits, truly creating upending experiences that develop the individual along several dimensions.鈥 This is true not merely in terms of in-class work; the program 鈥渁lso provides several experiential learning opportunities through [its] consulting projects and study abroad programs.鈥 鈥淭he experiential learning projects give us good exposure to real-world work before we actually take the plunge,鈥 students tell us.

In terms of size, Krannert is just right. The program 鈥渋s small enough for each student to stand out and become a leader if they would like to,鈥 yet 鈥渓arge enough and diverse enough to really learn a lot from your classmates.鈥 Krannert keeps class sizes small, which 鈥渕eans that students have greater one-on-one time with professors and they remain closely knit even years after graduation.鈥 Krannert professors 鈥渨ork to continue to contribute to research and stay involved in their respective fields,鈥 yet remain 鈥済enuinely interested in helping their students and are open and available to them any time we need.鈥
