ABOUT

A unique MBA in Israel

University of Haifa’s MBA Program is designed to fit an age of globalization, constant disruptive changes and the steadily growing importance of East Asia in the global business world.

This English speaking MBA program aims at providing you with the core knowledge, competencies and skills that will make of you a global manager capable of rapidly evolving within the increasingly dynamic, complex and competitive international business environment.

Thus, all the basic core courses are designed to study all the MBA disciplines with a clear prominence to the global and international aspects of each respective topic. On top of this global vision, the program offers a strong regional emphasis on doing business in and with East Asian countries such as China, India, Japan and Korea. Some regional specialization include:

  • A Joint Seminar with MBA students in China (or in India), working together on projects and partnerships commissioned by companies in both countries.

  • A Study Trip in China (or India) that will get you in direct contact with peers and managers in these countries and allow you to exchange with them as well as discover their own country and experience their approach to management. (The cost of the Study Trip is not included in the tuition fee).

Faculty members belong to Haifa University School of Business Administration and to reputed MBA Programs in Asia, Europe and the USA. Many are also experienced practitioners in Business and Management.

Students who complete the program, will be granted a Master of Business Administration degree (MBA).
