Kellogg-WHU Executive MBA Program

The Kellogg-WHU Executive MBA Program is an Executive Master of Business Administration run jointly by WHU and Kellogg for senior professionals, who study part-time alongside their jobs. The programme lasts two years and is taught in English; the next intake starts in September 2027. WHU, whose campus is in Vallendar, Germany, is accredited by EQUIS, AACSB and FIBAA.

Teaching takes place in Düsseldorf/Vallendar, Chicago, Miami, Toronto, Hong Kong and Beijing. Electives in cities such as Miami, Hong Kong and Toronto add a global perspective, and on the Kellogg campus in Chicago participants meet more than 400 other executives. The leadership component uses interactive workshops, individual coaching and simulations, and the programme has a female leadership strand and a module on Entrepreneurship for Social Impact held in Sri Lanka.

Applicants need at least eight years of full-time work experience after completing a university degree. The school states that, within three years of graduating, 75% of participants are promoted and their salaries rise by 70% on average. Prospective students can join online information sessions, virtual coffee chats and campus tours in Vallendar.
