Welcome to the Haas community!
The Berkeley Haas MBA Association (MBAA) is the elected student government of the Full-time MBA Program. The MBAA is an integral part of student life at Haas.
What is the MBAA?
The MBAA team consists of 13 elected officers who serve as representatives of the student body across all aspects of the student experience. The MBAA’s goal is to continuously improve the Haas experience and ensure the needs of all students are organized, vocalized, and prioritized by the Haas administration and the UC Berkeley community.
Many Haas experiences sit within the MBAA discretion. Students have historically paid a one-time fee of $375 to participate. This fee is only paid once and covers you for all MBAA activities and support for your entire experience here.
How does the MBAA contribute to the community?
The MBAA works to improve all aspects of academics, professional, and social life at Haas in an inclusive way that empowers and honors our whole community. These efforts are nearly always completed in partnership with clubs, faculty, the MBA Program Office, and/or individual Haasies. Here are a few examples below:
- Campus-wide communications on events at Haas, by Haas clubs and the MBAA
- Representation and resources for International students
- Ensure diversity, equity, and inclusion are at the core of our experience
- Being liaisons between student body, faculty, and administration
- Collaboration with faculty, Deans, and academics office to constantly evolve the academic offerings and coursework
- Offering community service activities, especially in partnership with Service@Haas
Traditionally the MBAA has organized and led these activities:
- Cohort Olympics - The start of the battle for the Golden Egg (which is awarded to the best Cohort)
- Consumption Function - Monthly community events which celebrate our diverse student body over food and drinks
- Story Salon - Monthly community events which highlight personal stories from our diverse student body
