MBA Sustainability

About:

In recent years, Environmental, Social and Governance factors (ESG) have become crucial in the business arena. Today, companies worldwide that seek success, acknowledgement and financial investment must be socially responsible, embrace sustainable business practices and demonstrate high ESG rankings.


Accordingly, the demand for ESG professionals has never been higher. This includes Sustainability Experts, ESG Analysts, ESG Consultants, Energy & Climate Experts, Corporate Social Responsibility Experts and more.


As Israel is rated a global leader in the innovation of clean technologies, renewable energy and water solutions, and the University of Haifa is the first to align to the Global Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s) we are committed to address this pressing issue. This is why we have designed our unique international MBA Program in Sustainability to provide future global leaders with cutting-edge ESG-related knowledge and tools for real-time sustainable business management and environmental leadership.
