The Program commences each year in October. In line with the best B-Schools, students are expected to complete 60 credit points. The first two semesters focus on the basics of management, such as Economics, Finance, Accounting, Quantitative Methods, Human Resources and Marketing. The remaining semesters are dedicated to advanced studies of management theory and practice, including case studies and analysis of real management dilemmas. Throughout the Program, students will visit leading Israeli companies and receive lectures from successful Israeli and international business people.

The modern curriculum is taught by young, dynamic, flexible faculty members supplemented by top international scholars. Several modules are presented by faculty members from Columbia University, Cornell University, The Indian School of Business,   University of Toronto, the University of International Business and Economics, Beijing, George Washington University and New York University.
