Weatherhead School of Management

Weatherhead offers programs concentrated in sustainability, design innovation, healthcare, organizational behavior, global entrepreneurship, and executive education.

The school is named for benefactor and Weatherchem owner Albert J. Weatherhead III, and its principal facility is the Peter B. Lewis Building.

The Weatherhead School of Management is housed in the Peter B. Lewis Building, located at the corner of Bellflower Road and Ford Drive.

Designed by Frank Gehry and completed in 2002, the building has an area of approximately 150,000 square feet (14,000 m2) and stands five stories tall.

[2] The building's decentralized design was chosen so that, “Faculty offices, classrooms and meeting areas are distributed on every floor to encourage informal interaction and complement the Weatherhead School’s learner-centered curricula.” The Center was launched on June 24, 2004.

The Center created new partners for the school, including Toyota, Coca-Cola, Novartis, Lafarge, Sherwin Williams, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, and others.

The Weatherhead MAcc degree requirements satisfy the educational qualifications for an individual to sit for the CPA examination in the state of Ohio.

The curriculum comprises the following three components: Supply chain courses and electives, SAP workshops, and Practical work experience.

Through a range of open source and commercial statistical software, you’ll prepare to excel in analyst positions across industries.

[9] The Doctor of Management is a 54-credit-hour, three-year lock-step program for people intending a business, rather an academic, career, and is based on the expectation that the practitioner-scholar will develop the ability to think critically about problems confronting an organization.

Doctoral students work with faculty whose research investigates matters of importance to academics, practitioners, and policy makers.

The Executive Doctor of Management (EDM) Program comprises 54 credit hours organized into interdependent areas of study.

Faculty at the Weatherhead school also advise doctoral students in accounting, management, operations research, and organizational behavior.

Prominent faculty include David Cooperrider, Kalle Lyytinen, Fred Collopy, Dick Boland and Richard Buchanan.

With the help of Richard Buchanan, The Weatherehad School of Management's lead role in the trend was recognized by BusinessWeek in September, 2009, as one of the top 30 Design Thinking programs in the world.
