Message From the Dean, Fall 2024

We are in the middle of another exciting and busy fall semester at the Naveen Jindal School of Management. I am excited to share with you the “big” news; on Oct. 8 we broke ground for our third building. I am pleased to announce that we have designed a beautiful new facility that is going to contain state-of-the-art classrooms, labs and lecture studios.

Message From the Dean, Spring 2024

It has been a productive and successful spring semester here at the Naveen Jindal School of Management. Whenever I walk the hallways, I see a vibrant community of students, faculty and staff members, and visitors. The lounges and conference rooms are constantly full. The student organizations are active and thriving. The campus once again looks as active as it did before the pandemic hit us a few years ago.

Message From the Dean, Autumn 2023

This fall, we have over 11,000 students attending classes in our school; a record enrollment. We have also brought in a class of 24 new faculty members and numerous additional staff members to support the ever-growing student body. With all this growth we also started the planning for our third building, which will be adjacent to the existing complex. Below I will briefly share with you some of the accomplishments of our faculty and students.

Message From the Dean, Spring 2023

This semester we graduated more than 2,200 students with degrees ranging from undergraduate to PhD and covering every business discipline one can imagine. As I write these words, I can’t help but think about the first Message from the Dean that I wrote in our inaugural issue of Management magazine in the fall of 1997.

Message From the Dean, Autumn 2022

This is a wonderful time to be at the Naveen Jindal School of Management. I hear from my colleagues at other universities that they are having a difficult time bringing their students back to campus. Meanwhile, here we are seeing record enrollment with nearly 10,500 students. The hallways are filled daily with many of them. We have enrolled a record number of students in our Jindal Young Scholars Program and four students from the first cohort graduated this past spring.

I am happy to report that after a couple tumultuous years of pandemic, our School has transitioned to normal operations this spring. In a sign of normalcy our parking lots are getting full again. Many events are being held on campus and the students are walking the hallways.

Message From the Dean, Autumn 2021

I am happy to again be writing to you from campus after COVID-19's many challenges. Faculty and staff came back to the school last summer, and we regained a firm footing this fall. Return of students, record freshman enrollment, higher rankings, several awards, launch of a new undergraduate program and a new center of excellence all make for happy news.

As I write this, I am looking forward to spring graduation and soon returning to campus. The coronavirus is at last abating, and the Jindal School has much to celebrate beyond that. I am happy to report that even in these difficult times we have continued to make progress.
