“I joined as a post-doctoral fellow at Bar-Ilan University in the Faculty of Life Sciences. BIU is one of the renowned Universities in Israel for pursuing higher education. My experience at BIU is something that I will remember for a lifetime. The departmental officials extended their help, selflessly. It was truly an enriching experience to be an international student at Bar-Ilan University.”
“After finishing my BA in Chemistry from the University of Costa Rica. I am now a PhD student in Computational Chemistry.
My experience at Bar-Ilan has been really good, and though my mother tongue is Spanish, people at Bar-Ilan have been really warm and helpful and I have made friends and am thoroughly enjoying the study of science.”
“I couldn’t be happier to have chosen Bar Ilan International Program as the place where I would earn my BA degree in Israel, in English! The International Program has provided me with courses that interest me, professors who care, and amazing friends from all over the world! Its a wonderful environment, a beautiful campus, and a great place to study!”
“This is my fifth year studying at Bar Ilan. I loved my experience during my BA, where I met friends for life and professors who became role models and mentors for me. After graduating in Educational Counselling, I felt I had much more to learn here and got accepted to the Shaindy Rudoff Graduate Program in Creative Writing. One reason I enjoy studying here is that the university is culturally diverse. In class, we have students from Germany, South Africa, and India. As an American, I wanted a place where I could meet more American and Bar Ilan has many student and program for Americans.”
“As an MA student, I find that the staff and faculty here want everyone to succeed, and have gone above and beyond to help me personally achieve my academic goals. They have been very patient as I acclimate to Hebrew, and have provided English sources when available. The student body is likewise friendly, and there vibrant student life on campus. The Department of Land of Israel Studies and Archaeology is the only one of its kind. I would highly recommend Bar-Ilan to anyone who is considering studying in Israel.”
“I quickly found amazing friends from all over the world, and Bar Ilan became my second home. I was very happy I chose to study English Literature as the lecturers were outstanding, and I felt myself growing and learning every day. It was just the right amount of challenge and fun. In addition, I was able to take fascinating courses in philosophy, art, politics and religion in other departments. During the last semester of my BA I was offered to work as a research assistant, and I didn’t even have to think twice. I decided to stay at Bar Ilan for my second degree, and I was given the opportunity to explore the subjects which I’m most interested in.”
“I made aliyah in 2012, wishing to be a speech and language therapist while venturing into the world of academia. I heard that the Department of English Literature and Linguistics was undertaking research in bilingualism and I offered to assist then signed up for their MA in Applied Clinical Linguistics. I am now a Presidential Doctoral Fellow, focusing on the development of English as a heritage language (home/first language). The department offers a wide variety of courses and is at the forefront of research, making it a unique place to study. There is also a supportive culture within the department that encourages students to progress and reach their full potential.”
“I am truly grateful for the Bar-Ilan International School and my Professor for the organization of international partnerships, and especially for the chance to be part of an Erasmus Program for PhD students at Ca’ Foscari University of Venice. This internship was a perfect chance to develop my personal and professional life. I was lucky enough to meet wonderful people who helped to be integrated in their country and projects. I believe that my scientific knowledge from the University of Venice would enable me to make a valuable contribution to my group back in Israel”
“First of all, I’d like to thank Bar-Ilan University for the incredible opportunity of visiting the University of Jyvaskyla as part of the Erasmus program. During my time there I had a chance to meet colleagues from all over the world and be introduced to a variety of state-of-the-art techniques. Alongside of that, I made new personal connections that have and will allow me to further advance the research in my field. As an added bonus, I was very thankful for the chance to explore a beautiful part of Finland with it’s warm, hospitable culture and people”
