Greetings, Marhaba, Bienvenue:

Welcome to the School of Business Administration (SBA) at Al Akhawayn University, a world-class business school in the beautiful town of Ifrane, Morocco.

As the Dean of the School of Business Administration, my primary goal is to build on the school's heritage of excellence and continue to foster a culture of innovation and experimentation through various ambitious initiatives and partnerships.  To date, our SBA can count on its top-notch team of internationally qualified and recognized faculty and staff, along with a vibrant student body across graduate and undergraduate programs, with our rich and internationally accredited education offerings in Finance, Management, Marketing and other relevant disciplines, the SBA developed a robust alumni base of top tier business leaders in Morocco and across the world.

At SBA we strive to provide each student with a world-class education that yields the perfect job after graduation. We are committed to the ultimate career success of our students, notably job placement at leading organizations. We pride ourselves on the job readiness of SBA graduates. Rigorous education, a culture of mentorship, experiential learning, personalized attention by our world-renowned faculty who conduct impactful cutting-edge research to directly apply their rich insights into the classroom, are key ingredients to the career success of SBA students.

Our curriculum incorporates 21st century skills and training including hands-on projects with industry and corporate partners. We provide numerous opportunities to engage in co-curricular activities such as study abroad programs in many prestigious partner institutions, co-ops and internships to create a positive difference that can be impactful and invaluable in your university education.

As Dean of the SBA, I will continue to develop academic programs, encourage the culture of creativity, listening and trust, and provide the support necessary to strengthen the national and international influence of our institution.
