Industrial Engineering and Management

For every track

• ·A grade of 75 or higher in bagrut mathematics at 5 units, or *a grade of 85 or higher in bagrut mathematics at 4 units (all applicants admitted on the basis of 4 units are required to take a mathematics placement test), or a grade of 75 or higher in 2 of the following Tel Aviv University courses: Calculus 1A, Calculus 1B, Calculus 2A, Calculus 2B, Algebra, or in 2 of the following courses at The Open University of Israel: Infi 1, Infi 2, Calculus B, Linear Algebra 1, Linear Algebra 2. (These courses grant an exemption from the mathematics placement test.)
• ·Physics at 5 units with a grade of 70 or higher, or chemistry or a technological subject at 5 units with a grade of 70 or higher, with a physics placement test, or biology at 5 units with a grade of 80 or higher, with a physics placement test, or the subject “Production Management” / “Industrial Management” / “Operations Management” / “Production Organization and Management” at 5 units with a grade of 80 or higher, with a physics placement test, or a grade of 70 or higher in Classical Physics 1 at Tel Aviv University or in Mechanics at The Open University of Israel, or a score of 140 or higher in the quantitative reasoning section of the psychometric exam, and also: a grade of 90 or higher in mathematics at 5 units, with a physics placement test, or a suitability score at least 20 points higher than the admission threshold, and also a grade of 90 or higher in mathematics at 5 units, with a physics placement test
• ·Overall psychometric score of 620 or higher or a degree from a CHE-recognized academic institution with an average of 85 or higher, and also a grade of 70 or higher in bagrut physics at 5 units; or in the physics placement test or in Classical Physics 1 at Tel Aviv University or in Mechanics or Electricity and Magnetism at The Open University of Israel; or a grade of 80 or higher in each and an average of 85 or higher in the following courses: Calculus 1A or Calculus 1B or Linear Algebra at Tel Aviv University, or Infi 1 or Infi 2 or Linear Algebra 1 at The Open University of Israel; and also Classical Physics 1 at Tel Aviv University, or Mechanics or Electricity and Magnetism at The Open University of Israel
• ·The applicant has not previously studied at a recognized academic institution recognized by the CHE, or the previous academic studies ended with a cumulative average of 75 or higher and were not discontinued for academic reasons (such as failing courses)
• ·Applicants admitted to the Faculty of Engineering must have prior knowledge of physics. Anyone who did not pass a physics bagrut exam at 5 units or more with a grade of at least 70 is defined as “lacking physics.” Applicants “lacking physics” will be admitted conditionally, as detailed under the “Lacking Physics” tab.
• ·Applicants who graduated from high schools abroad and whose diploma is not equivalent to an Israeli bagrut certificate: These applicants must complete a year at a recognized mechina in the science track (5 units in mathematics and 5 units in physics). See applicants who graduated from the mechina for new immigrants below.
• ·The university’s general admission requirements — An Israeli bagrut certificate or a high-school completion certificate from abroad
