The School of Business Administration operates on the basis of excellence, innovation and sustainability to foster collaboration and cross-fertilization of ideas across different disciplines. We seek to create and disseminate up-to-date, relevant knowledge that carries economic and social impacts.

We have been training managers for three decades. Thousands of our graduates are embedded in junior, mid-level and senior managerial positions in a variety of organizations in different sectors. We are proud of these graduates, who are part of our social and economic and social contribution in Israel and around the world. In addition, many research students acquired their Master or PhD degree in our school, supporting out effort to be at the forefront of research, as evident in many publications shared by these students.

Our school continues to grow and develop. Alongside the traditional MBA program that trains managers in the business sector, we hold programs focused on management in non-for-profit organizations, real estate and land appraisal management, strategic human resource management, technology management. and sustainability management. These MBA programs all share the core of business administration curriculum, supplemented by specialized courses. We also have two MA programs – in Actuarial Studies and in Logistics. Finally, in the 2024-2025 academic year we have launched our BA program in Business Management. This program is geared towards students in junior-level managerial positions as well as students with extensive work experience who have not yet acquired their bachelor's degree.

The School of Business Administration emphasizes a positive learning atmosphere in a participatory and productive work environment, therefore the school gives great significance to the connection between three axes: the academic staff, the learners, and the administrative staff. This tradition of research excellence, excellence in teaching and excellence in social engagement, has been ingrained in the school from its earliest days. We are proud of our students, the academic staff and the exceptional administrative staff, thanks to whom the school is a center of excellence and innovation.

In 2015, the United Nations adopted 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that call for action to eradicate poverty, hunger and discrimination, protect the planet and ensure that by 2030 all human beings will enjoy peace and prosperity. These 17 goals are intertwined and affect each other, as well as balance social, economic and environmental sustainability. Subject to the University's decision to adopt these goals as a guiding spotlight for research and teaching, the School of Business Administration strives to express these goals in its study programs and in research of faculty members, understanding that these goals are critical for tomorrow's managers who will lead to these changes for the common welfare.

We invite you to join the family of the School of Business Administration at the University of Haifa: to participate in our research, creativity and learning experiences. The doors of the administrative and academic staff are always open, and we welcome all those who come through our gates.
