Overview of DeVry University's Keller Graduate School of Management
The Keller Graduate School of Management (KGSM) was originally founded in 1973 as the CBA Institute. Its goal was to provide a practitioner-oriented approach to management education. In 1976, founders Dennis J. Keller and Ronald L. Taylor launched the School's Master of Business Administration degree program and expanded its sites from one Chicago location to five sites in Chicago, the Chicago suburbs and Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In 1987, the School came under the umbrella of DeVry, Inc. through its consolidation with DeVry Institutes.
After the merger, the two institutions continued to expand both programmatically and geographically. In the 1990s, KGSM added six additional Master's degree programs in management fields. Keller today offers online, evening and weekend classes in all of its Master's degree programs, which include Business Administration, Human Resource Management, Information Systems, Project Management, Public Administration and Telecom Management. DeVry currently operates 47 adult learning centers and 23 undergraduate campuses across the United States and Canada.
