One-year full-time program jointly offered by the Arison School of Business, IDC Herzliya, and Mannheim Business School, starting in November 2021
Participants spend half the year in Israel and Germany respectively, benefiting from the strengths of both partners and locations
Applications are now open
Starting in November 2021, the Arison School of Business, IDC Herzliya, and Mannheim Business School will jointly offer the first German–Israeli degree program. The new Master in Management Analytics will prepare young executives for the challenges of digital transformation and converting data into a source of business value. The two schools developed the one-year full-time program with three objectives in mind: to train experts and future leaders in all important aspects of digitization, to connect business cultures and to further strengthen German–Israeli relations.
Both institutions enjoy an excellent reputation worldwide: IDC Herzliya, located in the vicinity of Tel Aviv, is considered one of the top universities in Israel, bringing together leading experts in artificial intelligence, big data, innovation and entrepreneurship, while Mannheim Business School is the umbrella organization for management education at the University of Mannheim, one of the leading European universities for business, economics and the social sciences. Students will spend half the one-year full-time program in each of the respective countries, studying and also gaining insights into local companies. “Thus, they will benefit from the strengths of both partners and locations. They will be familiarized with the data-driven ecosystems both of Israel, a start-up nation, particularly those in the Tel Aviv metropolitan area, and of Germany, a location with an unprecedented number of highly successful corporations of all sizes and in all sectors,” explains Prof. Dov Pekelman, Dean of the Arison School of Business. “Graduates will not only be internationally versed young leaders and experts in digitization and management analytics, but also key ambassadors of German–Israeli relations around the world possessing unique cultural intelligence,” states Prof. Jens Wüstemann, President of Mannheim Business School.
The curriculum includes courses in data management and analytics, business and technology. A further pillar of the Master in Management Analytics is the broad range of personal and career development opportunities available. A comprehensive Business Analytics Master Project to be carried out in a small group at a partner company concludes the program. “Our graduates will have the invaluable ability to take a holistic view of management issues and adopt and understand the roles and perspectives of experts in various functions,” says Dr. Ofrit Lesser, co-director of the program at the Arison School of Business. “The program fosters precisely the analytical mindset and skills required to analyze large amounts of data appropriately and effectively, and subsequently draw the right conclusions. Thus, alumni of this program will provide companies of all sizes in all sectors with the capability to transform data into real business value,” stresses Prof. Florian Stahl, the program’s academic director at Mannheim Business School. Recent studies show that this job profile is much sought after on the job market. According to a World Economic Forum study, data analysts and scientists, AI and machine learning specialists, as well as big data and digital transformation specialists are among the top 10 most promising job profiles for the coming years. A Bain & Company study states that even though the number of data specialists will have reached one million worldwide in 2020, it will not be nearly enough for companies to fill all their staff requirements.
Applications for the Master in Management Analytics are now open. The regular tuition fee is €38,000. However, participants of the first class of the program will enjoy an introductory price of €27,000. The admission requirements are an undergraduate degree, work experience in a data-related position and a very good command of English.
