Founded in 1995, Ono is a private academic institution – and a registered NGO – offering degrees in Law, Business Administration, Advertising and Marketing Communications, Accounting, Humanities, Health Professions, and Music.

In addition to fostering true academic success, our unique programming extends into the field of social entrepreneurship, harnessing the power of educational programs to produce leadership that mends social gaps. Integrated into its academic framework, Ono has initiated a series of programs that promote diversity and inclusion, aiding those who have been deprived of the rights, privileges and the personal resources enjoyed by mainstream Israeli society and opening the doors of higher education to all sectors in Israel.

Our emphasis on excellence finds expression through our faculty, a virtual ‘who’s who’ of the world’s top academic experts, brightest business and political minds, and innovative scientific and social researchers – all graduates of leading universities in Israel and abroad.  This diverse and dynamic faculty reciprocates the admiration received from the student body, ensuring a pervasive sense of self-worth and belonging on campus and inspiring a community of graduates across the country who strive to better their own environments and Israeli society at large.
