We seek students who care deeply about the problems afflicting our world. 

We equip them with the knowledge, the resources, and the networks to pursue positive and ambitious change in business and in life.

Since its founding 50 years ago, Yale SOM has sought to be a different kind of business school—one that educates leaders who can improve their organizations and their communities.

Our Community

MBA students are preparing to confront challenges that cut across fields of study by pursuing joint degrees in law, environmental management, architecture, public health, and medicine.

This internship has reinforced why I chose SOM in the first place. I came to business school because I wanted to better understand management strategy and learn how organizations can remain financially healthy and sustainable over the long term. At Chartis, I have a front-row seat to the complex strategic and financial decisions that nonprofit hospital systems face every day.

Building a just world through policy, advocacy, and strategy has always been at the center of what I do. The EMBA program has affirmed how I show up in the world and given me the business acumen to lead with confidence. This program is for people who want to lean into growth. It’s a chance to invest in yourself and make meaningful connections. More importantly, it’s an opportunity to build a platform for whatever’s next.
