  • 24 credit points with an average of 70
  • The College recognizes graduates of annual or semester-based pre-academic mechinot in engineering, natural and life sciences, and exact sciences at institutions of higher education in Israel.

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

  • An applicant who meets all the admission requirements except for 1 requirement (not including eligibility for a bagrut certificate) will be invited to a personal interview at the discretion of the admissions committee.
  • An applicant is required to pass a preparatory physics course with a grade of 60 as a prerequisite for registration for some courses in the first year – in the departments of Materials Engineering, Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Biotechnology Engineering.

What you study

Materials engineering deals with the relationship between the structure and composition of a material and its properties, combining knowledge from engineering and science. This is a broad field that covers both the planning and production stages of a product and the study of the different materials it is made of from chemical, physical, and biological perspectives. Courses in the degree include basic courses in mathematics and science, as well as courses such as material structure, thermodynamics and kinetics, mechanical, electrical, optical, and electrochemical properties, metallic, ceramic, polymeric, and electronic materials, and a practical final project.

After the degree

What graduates work as

  • Engineering in Other Fieldsmost commonResearch, consultation, and development of procedures and engineering solutions in the fields of workplace safety, biomedical engineering, optics, materials (including explosives), and nuclear energy production.
  • Industrial and Manufacturing Engineeringmost commonResearching, planning, organizing, and supervising the construction, operation, and maintenance of facilities and processes for industrial production. Preparing plans to coordinate production work, and assessing its safety and economic feasibility.

Which industries they work in

  • Manufacture of Computers, Electronic and Optical Equipment27%
  • Scientific Research and Development14%
  • Computer programming, computer consulting, and other related services11%

Employment rate above average 83% of graduates are employed 3–4 years after completing their studies(average across all institutions)

Graduates' salaries are above average: ₪19,200 average monthly salary 5–6 years after completing their studies
