Program Details

The International Med-Tech Innovation MBA program is designed to provide participants with the knowledge and skills required to successfully lead and manage a med-tech-oriented company. Taught by international experts and industry leaders, our Med-Tech MBA is the first University degree of its kind in Israel. Integrating academic, industrial and business knowledge into an innovative, top-notch curriculum, the program covers topics such as entrepreneurship, finance, digital health, healthcare IT, intellectual property, bio-design, quality assurance and regulatory compliance. Theoretical studies are enhanced by practical components including internships with leading biomedical professionals, networking opportunities with internationally renowned experts, and exposure to cutting-edge technologies emerging from Israel’s hospital system. Participants benefit tremendously from interaction with top international experts who share their knowledge and experience in managing biomedical research, and gain practical experience by applying theoretical concepts to real-life business challenges.

The Med-Tech MBA program is spread across two consecutive semesters, with the first two including a professional internship at a venture capital and a startup. This practical experience is followed by the optional Trans-disciplinary Innovation Program (TIP) in the summer semester, which culminates in the opportunity for students to pitch their ideas to a panel of real investors and accelerators. Upon completion of the program, students will enter the job market with biomedical management skills, analytical and problem-solving skills, and an internationally accredited executive MBA degree from a world-renowned institution.
