Owen Graduate School of Management

The Vanderbilt University Owen Graduate School of Management is the graduate business school of Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee, United States. Founded in 1969, Owen awards eight degrees: a standard 2-year Master of Business Administration (MBA), an Executive MBA, an Americas Executive MBA, a Master of Finance, a Master of Accountancy, a Master of Accountancy-Valuation, a Health Care MBA, and a Master of Management in Health Care, as well as a large variety of joint professional and MBA degree programs. Owen is renowned for its Health Care MBA, a unique program that provides students an in-depth educational experience tailored to the health care industry. Owen also offers non-degree programs for undergraduates and executives.
The student to faculty ratio is about 9 to 1, with 577 students and 49 full-time faculty members.〔 The school’s 8,304 living MBA alumni are found throughout the U.S. and around the world.
Owen's two-year MBA program is consistently ranked among the top business schools in the nation by major publications. In 2014, Owen was ranked #25 in ''U.S. News & World Report'' rankings. ''Bloomberg Businessweek'' ranked the full-time MBA program #30 in 2014.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.businessweek.com/bschools/rankings/full_time_mba_profiles )
The school is named for Ralph “Peck” Owen and his wife, Lulu Hampton Owen. Ralph Owen, a Vanderbilt alumnus (’28), was a founder of Equitable Securities Corporation in Nashville, and he became the chairman of the American Express Company.
==History==
Vanderbilt University Owen Graduate School of Management has been in operation since 1969, but the university's first proposal for a business education program came from its Board of Trust (BOT) in 1881. They called it the Commercial College Department. No program was established then, however, and it was the mid-1950s before a program of business administration was offered in the Department of Economics.〔Madison Smartt Bell, ''History of the Owen School: From Its Early Origins to 1984'' (Nashville: Vanderbilt University, 1985)〕 With the economic growth in Nashville and Middle Tennessee at that time, local businessmen, many of whom were Vanderbilt alumni and BOT members, recognized the need for a formal business education program to train leaders for the area. They were concerned that too many aspiring young businessmen would attend schools in other parts of the country and then remain in those regions.
Progress was slow in seeing the need fulfilled; the idea was conceived during the administration of Chancellor Harvie Branscomb (1946–63) but did not come to fruition until the administration of Chancellor G. Alexander Heard (1963–82). The BOT passed the school’s founding resolution on May 5, 1967, and operations as the Graduate School of Management began in September 1969 with twelve faculty members and six students.〔 Classes met in a renovated funeral home, a gift from Mr. and Mrs. David K. Wilson; he was one of those concerned Nashville businessmen, a Vanderbilt alum (’41), and a Vanderbilt BOT member.〔Paul Conkin, ''Gone with the Ivy: A Biography of Vanderbilt University'' (Knoxville: University of Tennessee Press, 1985)〕 The building was named Alexander Hall in honor of Henry Clay Alexander, a Vanderbilt alum (’23), a Vanderbilt BOT member, and president of J.P. Morgan.〔Robert A. McGaw, ''The Vanderbilt Campus: A Pictorial History'' (Nashville: Vanderbilt University Press, 1978)〕
The first dean, Igor Ansoff, held master's degrees in engineering and in mathematics and physics from the Stevens Institute of Technology; his PhD from Brown University was in applied mathematics. He had most recently been a professor of industrial administration at Carnegie-Mellon but previously worked at Lockheed, where his specialty was strategies of diversification. He had also written and published works on business education and business management.〔
It was under the leadership of Dean Samuel B. Richmond, a statistician from Columbia University, who had been acting dean of Columbia Graduate School, that the school was named for Ralph and Lulu Owen (1977). In 1930, two years after graduating from Vanderbilt University, Ralph Owen became a founding member of Equitable Securities Corporation in Nashville. By 1950, the firm was recognized as the second largest investment banking firm in the United States. Equitable purchased controlling interest in American Express in 1949 and 1950, and Owen became American Express chairman (1960–68).〔Editorial, ''Nashville Banner.'' 1983-11-7.〕 Following the deaths of both Mr. and Mrs. Owen, their estates gave $33.5 million to The Owen School, said to be the largest gift to a U.S. business school at that time. That sum raised the total of their gifts to more than $62 million.〔Julie Bell, “$33.5 Million Given VU for Owen School,” ''Tennessean.'' 1996-1-25.〕
The Owen School outgrew Alexander Hall, and its new home was completed in 1982. Management Hall is connected to a historic building, Mechanical Engineering Hall, which encloses a central courtyard and serves as home to the Executive MBA program. Mechanical, built in 1888, was the first building in Tennessee designed for the teaching of engineering.〔Vanderbilt University. http://www.vanderbilt.edu/map/owen.html.〕
In July 2013, M. Eric Johnson started his tenure as the Ralph Owen Dean and Bruce D. Henderson Professor of Strategy. Johnson previously served as Associate Dean for the MBA program at Dartmouth College’s Tuck School of Business, where he was also Faculty Director of the Glassmeyer/McNamee Center for Digital Strategies and Benjamin Ames Kimball Professor of the Sciences of Administration. He began his academic career at Vanderbilt’s Owen Graduate School of Management, where he taught from 1991-1999. One of the youngest professors to receive tenure in the school’s history, Johnson twice won the Dean’s Teaching Excellence Award while at Owen.〔http://www.owen.vanderbilt.edu/vanderbilt/faculty-and-research/faculty-directory/faculty-profile.cfm?id=273〕
From the beginning of the planning for what became The Owen School, the goal was to create a graduate business school of “the highest professional quality” with a two-year program leading to an MBA.〔 Most students in the early years were young men from Tennessee and surrounding states, fulfilling the hopes of businessmen to keep talented people in the area, but by 2008, men and women from across the United States and from international locales had attended The Owen School. At present about 25 percent are international students, and 33 percent are women.〔 Recruiters from American and international companies have sought out the students, and the school has expanded its offerings to specialized master's degrees (in health care, finance, and accountancy), an Executive MBA program, and an Executive Development program.〔Owen School. http://www.owen.vanderbilt.eduvanderbilt/Programsexec-ed/index.cfm.〕
