The Hebrew University of Jerusalem

The mission of the Jerusalem School of Business Administration at the Hebrew University is to create and disseminate meaningful knowledge in the field of business administration. Through cutting edge research, and effective teaching, the School aims to shape business thought and practice. Our primary goal is to work at the forefront of research in the field and provide in-depth, research-based education and training to our students. By providing the skills and tools to understand and analyze business-related phenomena, we aim to develop the research and business leaders of tomorrow. Specifically, we aim to provide appropriate tools for students seeking to be part of the government sector, the business sector and the academic world. To do so, we take advantage of the fact that the School is located in Israel (the “Startup Nation” ) and in Jerusalem with its history and governmental structure. The school uses this environment to form connections with the entrepreneurial eco-system of Israel and with regulatory and government entities located in the city of Jerusalem. As described throughout this document, we attempt to inspire our students to integrate the theoretical knowledge that they acquire in analytical courses at the Hebrew University and implement them in empirical or applied research and business projects. We also aim to provide students with multi-and inter-disciplinary perspectives, above and beyond the scope of business administration and require that they take a second major, in a different discipline, outside the School or take part in one of the many joint programs offered by the School together with other academic units of the Hebrew University.
