About Roosevelt University
Executive MBA | Walter E. Heller College of Business Administration

Across the street from RU, Grant ParkRoosevelt University has two distinct campuses: in Chicago and Schaumburg, Illinois. The university is an institution connected to both the city and the suburbs – a metropolitan university serving the entire Chicagoland area. The campuses share one faculty and one curriculum and one mission, but at the same time, offer twice as many perspectives and twice as much flexibility.

The Albert A. Robin Campus is located in the suburb of Schaumburg, 30 miles northwest of the Chicago Campus. A wonder in modern architecture, the campus opened in 1996, reflecting on the university’s commitment to suburban education. Schaumburg, one of the most rapidly expanding business edgy cities in the U.S., is already the corporate base of businesses such as AT&T, Kemper, Motorola, McDonald’s, Zurich-American and many more.

Overlooking Grant Park and Lake Michicagn, the Chicago Campus is located on Michigan Avenue, right in the middle of the city’s business and cultural districts. It spans 10 stories of the famous Auditorium building, designed by architects Adler and Sullivan in 1889. Before it became the home of Roosevelt University, the Auditorium Building was one of the first multi-use buildings in the United States, housing a hotel, business offices and the renowned Auditorium Theater.

Chicago at nightChicago

Chicago is the home of some of the best-known multinational corporations in the world, many of which maintain close ties with Roosevelt University and are more than willing to offer students an in-depth look at their operations and procedures. Field trips to mammoth corporations such as Motorola, Northern Trust and Zurich-American, to name a few, have proved extremely educational and enjoyed tremendous popularity with students in the Executive MBA Program in International Leadership.

Chicago has a population of 2.8 million people with backgrounds as diverse as the city’s business and cultural influences. This city is famous for its breathtaking skyline, the picturesque shores of Lake Michigan, winning sports teams and internationally renowned art scene.

It has also earned the preference of many of the United States’ and the world’s businesses for its highly efficient infrastructure and multicultural character.
