Admission requirements

You can be admitted through one of these tracks:

Regular track

Admission requirements

  • Psychometric exam or psychotechnical testScore of 550 or higher.

By bagrut, no psychometric exam

Exemption requirements (alternative to the psychometric exam)(our wording)

  • Exemption conditions: practical engineer with a final project and an external average of 80 or higher; weighted bagrut average of 102 or higher; applicants aged 30 or older
For adults and those who have studied before1

Applicants aged 30 and over

  • Exemption requirementsApplicants aged 30 and over
  • Applicants aged 30 and over must complete a supplementary mechina in mathematics, physics, and computer fundamentals, according to the faculty and department they wish to study in and the admissions committee's decision.

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.

For every track

  • Personal interview if needed
  • Bagrut in mathematics at 5 units – grade of 70 or higher; bagrut in mathematics at 4 units – grade of 80 or higher. Applicants who meet neither of these two conditions will have to complete a mechina in mathematics with a grade of 80 or higher.
  • Bagrut in physics at 5 units – grade of 70 or higher. Applicants who do not meet this condition will have to complete a mechina in physics with a grade of 70 or higher.
  • Eligibility for an Israeli bagrut certificate or a foreign high-school diploma.

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.
