An intensive Hebrew language course, or Ulpan , is required of all students who do not have advanced knowledge of Hebrew. The Ulpan includes guided tours and lectures on Israel's economic, social, and cultural life. Students then have a few weeks vacation before beginning the semester or academic year. Students can choose from a variety of courses, but must enroll in one course in Jewish or Israeli studies and one in Hebrew language each semester. Courses are available in such disciplines as art, the Bible, economics, education, Hebrew, Israeli studies, Jewish thought, literature, Middle East and Islamic studies, psychology, and Yiddish.
Students reside in university dormitories.
