Kellogg Tech Club | Why Kellogg

It's not just because over 70 of the world's top tech companies recruit Kellogg students each year. And it's not just because KTech delivers high-impact programs and resources including Tech Bootcamps, Interview Prep Groups, and the Tech Interview Case Book.

Kellogg offers an unparalleled combination of world-renowned faculty, technology courses, experiential learning opportunities, engaged alumni, and a collaborative, student-led culture. This environment ensures students are prepared to thrive in the fast-paced, innovative tech industry.

Kellogg's marketing roots have developed a culture of customer-obsession which helps our students thrive in the world of Tech. At the same time, collaboration - a key Kellogg value - is the bedrock of tech culture. In 2024, 20% of Kellogg graduates joined leading tech companies like Google, Amazon, and PayPal or stepped into tech-driven roles at companies like Walmart and Capital One.
