Maximize Impact and Create Value with an MBA

Enroll full-time or part-time.

The Heller Social Impact MBA is about more than just business. It's about making a real impact in the world. You'll build capability to lead organizations, advance social impact initiatives and sustain communities. You'll also gain the confidence to have hard conversations and make tough decisions. This isn't your typical MBA program. It's a Social Impact MBA.

We've led the way in mission-driven management education for over 40 years—and for us, that means much more than a few extra classes tacked onto a traditional MBA. Social impact is woven through every fiber of our curriculum and baked into every aspect of the student experience. It's not a concentration, it's a fundamental part of what we do.
