Graduates
Postgraduate Study at the Hebrew University
The Hebrew University's two-year MA programmes are recognised around the world for their excellence in teaching and research. Across the sciences, social sciences, humanities, arts and fine arts, students are attracted from over 70 countries worldwide, and especially from the UK and the USA, to participate in programmes which immerse them in Israeli life, culture, history and heritage.
Six postgraduate courses are taught in English, although all students not fluent in Hebrew are encouraged to attend one of the Ulpan courses before and during their study. Courses run throughout the summer and winter, as well as alongside regular termtime studies.
