Overview
The Talal Abu-Ghazaleh College of Business (TAG-College) is the first college of its kind that represents a partnership between the private and public sectors in the Arab world. It was founded to provide educational opportunities at the highest international standards. Our commitment to our students, to academic excellence and to the development of the region is reflected in our mission:
To provide the Arab and global markets with qualified leaders in various business sectors through implementing unique and modern academic and professional programs.
To that end, we only accept outstanding students and provide them with the tools and environment they need to thrive and become the leaders and shapers of the future.
TAG-College was inaugurated in 2006 as one of the faculties of the German-Jordanian University (GJU), a public university formed in 2004 through the joint cooperation of the German and Jordanian governments. This unique partnership brings the business expertise of the Talal Abu-Ghazaleh Organization (TAG-Org) to the academic world of GJU.
Excellence is not easily achieved. TAG-College is fortunate to have the financial support and resources of TAG-Org, which is the largest firm of professional services in the Arab world, with over 70 offices and 200 correspondent offices worldwide. TAG-Org is committed to making TAG-College, in the words of its chairman, “the Harvard of the Arab world.”
The program and courses at TAG-College have been developed with the global economy in mind by some of the most respected and renowned figures in academia to meet the highest international standards. Our MBA program has been designed to bolster the advancement of knowledge with practical real-world applications and through the case study approach to education. This places TAG-College in a league of its own. The MBA program is accreddited by the Foundation for International Business Administration Accreditation (FIBAA). The accreditation procedure has verified and confirmed that the program has all the quality elements specified in the European MBA Guidelines. The MBA program at TAG-College is the first in the Arab World to achieve this prestigious accreditationdespite being introduced only a couple of years ago.
TAG-College’s aim is to prepare students for leadership positions in certain specialized fields. We are dedicated to always develop new programs that help our graduates meet the demands of the ever-changing global economy.
