The Start-uP MBA offers students the chance to discover the start-up nation as they engage in practical projects, site visits and seminars that help transform their ideas into a reality. The Technion MBA is the only school in Israel that is part of the Yale Global Network for Advanced Management and students will be able to utilize the international partnership. The unique MBA model was developed by the Technion following in-depth consultation with top CEOs and entrepreneurs who voiced the need for a practical MBA program that offers managerial and management experience.
