The mission of the Yale School of Management (SOM) is to educate leaders for business and society. We believe superb business and management skills are critical for leadership in every sector of the economy. We embed this philosophy into all aspects of life at Yale SOM, which enables us to attract students who share a commitment to integrating business skills with social and environmental values across the public, private and nonprofit sectors.

Many courses incorporate international, social and environmental issues using a combination of theory and case studies to equip students with the rich set of tools required to manage in the increasingly complex environment in which they will work. The School shares in Yale's world-class faculty and resources, and is recognized, among many areas of business education for nonprofit management and economic development. Formal joint degree programs permit students to specialize in fields that intersect with business, including international affairs, law, public health and environment. Historically, the most popular joint program is the joint MBA/Master's of Environmental Management, offered in conjunction with one of the world's leading environmental institutions, the Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies .

Yale SOM's flagship events demonstrate our commitment to building careers across sectors. The Internship Fund (the first of its kind at any business school) unites the Yale SOM community in financial support of students who choose to take summer internships with civil society organizations. In 1986, Yale SOM became the first business school to help alleviate the educational loan obligations of graduates who pursue public or nonprofit management careers through the Yale SOM Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program. SOM Outreach, a student-run organization providing pro bono consulting services to nonprofit, public and private organizations in New Haven, broadens the learning experience through practical application of coursework while fostering relationships between Yale and the community. Yale sends one of the largest delegations to Net Impact's annual national conference on responsible business, and many students go on to work directly or indirectly in social and environmental fields
