Readers I am writing about the history of this world top business school.It is considered as best MBA school in the world as well as one of the top business universities.
Cornell was founded in 1865 by Ezra Cornell and Andrew Dickson White as a coeducational institution and the admission was offered irrespective of religion or race. Its founders wanted that the new university would teach and contribute in all fields of knowledge—from the classics to the sciences and from the theoretical to the applied. These ideals, ahead of time, are captured in Cornell's motto, an 1865 Ezra Cornell quotation: “I would find an institution where any person can find instruction in any study. Following his instinct Cornell offered liberal arts as well as hard core science subjects.
The university is broadly organized into seven undergraduate colleges and seven graduate divisions at its main Ithaca campus—for example, the College of Arts and Sciences and the College of Engineering—with each college and division defining its own academic programs in near autonomy. Cornell is one of two private land grant universities, and its seven undergraduate colleges include three state-supported statutory or contract colleges. The university also administers two satellite medical campuses, one in New York City and one in Education City, Qatar. Cornell has more than 255,000 living alumni and 28 Rhodes scholars and 41 Nobel Laureates connected with Cornell University. Students in these alumni are from 122 countries.
Cornell University was founded on April 27, 1865 as the result of a New York State Senate bill that named the university as the state's land grant institution.
