Israel is known as the “Start-up Nation” given the prominent role of local start-up companies in shaping the global tech revolution. The International StartUp 360° MBA program at Hebrew University’s Jerusalem School of Business Administration provides a unique opportunity for international students to immerse themselves in Israel’s acclaimed start-up ecosystem. Taught by experts in their fields, this selective 1-Year MBA program covers subjects such as entrepreneurship, finance, accounting, human resource management, marketing, and operations management. Students will acquire the knowledge, skills and experience necessary to excel in today’s dynamic business environment. 

In addition to classroom lectures and workshops, the program emphasizes unique added-value experiences such as professional internships with leading Israeli VCs and start-ups, networking with internationally acclaimed experts, and taking part in real investment processes using tangible money. The program also includes behind-the-scenes tours of emerging start-ups, on-site visits to major technology companies, and interactive group discussions with industry leaders. During the summer semester, students undergo a uniquely practical, intensive six-week program that culminates in a final event where students pitch ideas to a panel of investors and accelerators.
