The Tech MBA program is notable for students’ proactive and practical learning experiences through projects and interactions with start-ups, large tech companies, and companies that implement disruptive technologies. The study trip to Israel falls within this realm. The study trip’s main objective is to engage students in an active and meaningful way with firms in the digital economy; to understand the challenges they face; to interact and experience working with people and startups from different culture; and to gain insight that will help students in their professional life. Leading up to the study trip, students work in teams on a consulting project with an Israeli startup to help solve some of the challenges the firm faces. During the study trip itself, students visit the companies and present their solution to the startup, others in the study trip class, and outside guests such as VCs, angel investors, and bankers.
