Admission requirements
Intake for the 2026/27 academic year
You can be admitted through one of these tracks:
Regular track
Threshold requirements: psychometric exam and bagrut(our wording)
- 550 (the higher of the general multi-domain psychometric score or the quantitative reasoning psychometric score)
- 110 in the quantitative component
- 90 in the English component of the psychometric exam or the Amirnet exam
- An applicant who takes the psychometric exam in a language other than Hebrew and whose bagrut certificate is from an institution where the language of instruction is not Hebrew is required to have a score of at least 100 on the Yael exam.
- Bagrut cutoff scores (weighted bagrut average, without bonus points)Bagrut average – 70
- Mathematics – a grade of 80 at 4 units or 70 at 5 units (alternatively, a grade of 80 in the College’s pre-engineering mechina)
- Physics – a grade of 60 at 5 units, or a grade of 60 in the College’s pre-engineering physics mechina.
- English – a grade of 70 at 4 units or 60 at 5 units
- An additional advanced-level subject besides mathematics and English – a grade of 60
By bagrut, no psychometric exam
Admission route without a psychometric exam (optimal bagrut average)(our wording)
- Bagrut average (optimal, including bonus points) – 95
- Mathematics – a grade of 85 at 4 units or 75 at 5 units; alternatively, a grade of 85 in the College’s pre-engineering mechina
- Physics – a grade of 70 at 5 units; alternatively, a grade of 70 in the College’s pre-engineering mechina
- English – a grade of 80 at 4 units or 75 at 5 units
- An additional advanced-level subject beyond mathematics, physics and English – grade 75
- An applicant whose bagrut certificate is from an institution where the language of instruction is not Hebrew is required to have a score of at least 110 on the Yael exam or Yaelnet exam.
- English placement test (Amirnet exam), score of 90
- These admission tracks are not intended for applicants in the Academic Reserve program. These admission tracks require meeting all registration requirements. Applicants whose scores fall short of the requirements cannot be admitted.
- To calculate the best possible bagrut average, add 12.5 points to a science subject at the 4-unit level and 25 points to a science subject at the 5-unit level.
These are minimum requirements: meeting them does not by itself guarantee admission.
The requirements are in the institution's words. Names and labels marked "our wording" are our own, written from the same page.

What you study
Electrical Engineering deals with electricity as a means of transmitting energy, as opposed to Electronics Engineering, which deals with using electricity to transmit information. In most cases, students must choose one or more specializations during their studies, such as electro-optics, communications, nanoelectronics, bioengineering, signal processing, computers, control, electronic devices, energy and power systems, bioelectronics, and more. Courses in the degree include theoretical courses in core subjects such as mathematics, physics, programming, and electronics, as well as theoretical and practical laboratory courses, according to the areas of specialization. The studies also include a final project in the last year.
