Thank you for your interest in the D'Amore-McKim School of Business!
As Dean of the Dunton Family, it is my honor and privilege to welcome you to our vibrant community, where passion is a central driver in everything we do to create lasting impact. D'Amore-McKim is over 100 years old and has never stopped learning. This learning mindset, combined with an entrepreneurial spirit, our commitment to experiential education, and our drive to excel, characterizes and guides our faculty, staff, and students in their research and teaching endeavors.
As an important part of the vibrant Northeastern University network, we are a business school driven by curiosity. We explore and identify important corporate and social business challenges while delivering creative solutions that bring long-term and sustainable value to all stakeholders. Our unwavering commitment to embracing curiosity makes us a strong research-driven school that seeks to create impact not only in academia but even more so around the world. A unique aspect of D'Amore-McKim is that we cross boundaries by thinking across disciplines and fostering collaborations across scientific fields in order to address and address current and future global challenges. With our 13 campuses in three different countries, our school achieves this cross-border thinking in mind and face as we educate, conduct research and live and learn across our network of campuses.
This global and interdisciplinary focus enables us to better prepare our students to face the future challenges and opportunities that await them in the field. The ambition to make our students “future-proof” requires us to prepare them for workplaces where artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies will drive successful businesses. In the face of these challenges, it will also be important for us to think, anticipate and make business decisions in responsible and ethical ways as we explore and use these tools of the future.
Therefore, I invite you to join me in embracing the goal of educating our students as responsible global business leaders who can work, decide, navigate and create in a digital world, and I ask you to celebrate with me the certainty with which I know that D'Amore-McKim is the optimal place to do this for the reasons I stated above. With this mission in mind, I therefore pledge to dedicate myself to your success both as a business professional and as a citizen of the world who is fully committed to these values and this purpose.
I look forward to welcoming you to our community and sharing our passion, enthusiasm and desire to build the Global Business School for Tomorrow.
Sincerely,
David De Kremer
