Agriculture in the 21^st century is facing enormous challenges. Not only are farmers expected to produce adequate agricultural products at affordable prices to guarantee enough food for a rising global population, but they are also expected to do so under conditions of increasingly scarce natural resources and climate change. The quantity, quality and sustainability of soil and water are jeopardized by urban land growth, improper use and management, and climate change threats.

The MSc in Soil and Water Sciences program aims to prepare students for coping with current and future agricultural challenges. The unique Israeli environment, characterized by limited water resources, state-of-the-art agriculture, and diverse climate and soils, offers students exciting research opportunities to tackle these global questions.

Study and research in the MSc Soil and Water Sciences program combines the chemical and physical aspects of the soil-water-atmosphere continuum to approach precision agriculture. Teaching focuses on theoretical aspects in the soil-water-atmosphere continuum, as well as their implementation in precision agricultural practice.

Students may enroll in the non-thesis track (40 credits) or the thesis track (24 credits), both of which extend over 2 years. Each student will carry out an individual research project, supervised by a faculty member, on a topic chosen by the student in consultation with his/her supervisor.

Career & Networking 

Graduates gain valuable hands-on experience allowing them to join research and development teams in soil and water-related agro-tech industries, or to pursue higher academic research and degrees.

Teaching Faculty

Faculty members include established leading scientists who employ a wide variety of interdisciplinary approaches to topics in the soil-water-atmosphere continuum, as well as environmental sciences.

Hebrew University’s MA in International Development (Glocal) is geared toward individuals committed to reducing inequality and working toward a more just, socially cohesive, economically and environmentally sustainable world. While exploring international development from a global perspective, the program emphasizes the development of local, tailored interventions, providing students with a strong theoretical foundation, practical tools, and hands-on experience to help strengthen disadvantaged communities. During the 18-month graduate program, students learn to translate academic research into a practical understanding of community development, through cutting-edge theories and first-hand engagement with the complex challenges faced by disadvantaged communities worldwide.

The program’s unique approach builds on a strong, 14-month academic curriculum followed by a practical 4-month field internship spent in organizations serving local communities around the world. The diverse course offerings cover public health, geography, environmental management, entrepreneurship, social innovation, and migration and gender, among other subjects. Moreover, participants learn about the local complexity and cultural diversity of Jerusalem, drawing global lessons from local solutions and practices.

Each cohort consists of 25-30 students from around the world. Through interactive teaching methods, students learn from highly acclaimed academics about development practices and experiences in different countries. Each year, a select number of students who excel academically opt for the Glocal Research Track and write a master’s thesis in the field of international community development, thereby contributing to the advancement of knowledge and research in this field.

What is the role of Jewish educators?  The International MA in Education program at Hebrew University prepares Jewish and non-Jewish educators who reside outside of Israel for tackling topics like these with the aim of strengthening Jewish communities abroad. Students can choose between a study track in English or one in Spanish\ Portuguese. 

Offered at the Melton Centre for Jewish Education, the program is adapted to the needs of specialists who are unable to commit to an extensive period of study in Jerusalem, and is therefore taught as a blended on-site and distance learning course extending over one or two years. Most of the course load is taught remotely and students typically spend several weeks of intense learning in Jerusalem. The MA is designed for educators in both formal and informal frameworks who are interested in Jewish education and its dialogue with the social sciences, educational philosophy and Jewish and Israel studies. 

The program focuses on three main areas: the philosophy, sociology and psychology of Jewish and Israel education, the teaching of Jewish texts, and entrepreneurship and innovation in Jewish Education. For a full list of courses, click here for English and here for Spanish / Portuguese.

Program Details

Nutritional and food sciences are rapidly expanding research areas that significantly contribute to public health promotion. As the relationship between diet and disease and/or health is better understood, the nutritional value of foods has significantly improved and an increasing variety of products with health and nutritional benefits are being released to the market. Hebrew University’s MSc in Nutritional Sciences program provides international students with a strong foundation in this dynamic and fascinating field.

Taught at the Faculty of Agriculture, Food and Environment, this program prepares students to become leading professionals in the field of nutritional sciences and to apply their newly acquired knowledge to nutritional challenges in their home countries. Students learn the fundamentals of nutrition based on the latest research and benefit from the faculty’s close connections with clinical and public health nutritionists, R&D teams in the food industry and the academic community. This ongoing collaboration enables students to develop innovative approaches that address practical needs.

Students will graduate with a non-thesis MSc degree in biochemistry, food science and nutrition. While graduates of the program are highly qualified for a variety of career paths, this MSc program does not award a clinical degree and, therefore, graduates are not able to practice as licensed dieticians upon completion.

Qualified graduates may apply to the thesis track, which comprises a second year of studies, allowing students to continue their studies toward a PhD degree.

Career & Networking 

During their studies, the program participants enjoy many opportunities to meet and network with professionals and peers from different countries on campus and during site visits, field trips, and social events.

As the principal Israeli institution awarding academic degrees in nutritional and food sciences, the faculty enjoys a unique status. Its graduates include leading executives in Israel’s food industry, directors in the Ministries of Health and Agriculture and prominent researchers and practitioners.

Many graduates of the MSc in Nutritional Sciences program return to their home countries, where they hold key positions in the fields of health and nutrition, education, academia, research, NGOs and government organizations. Several alumni have chosen to continue their studies toward a PhD degree in programs around the world, including leading universities in Canada, Switzerland, Denmark and Japan.  

 

Teaching Faculty

Students benefit from the extensive experience of the teaching staff, who are leading academics and scientists with global reputations. Within the faculty, the Institute of Nutritional and Food Sciences is comprised of the School of Nutritional Sciences and the Department of Food Sciences.

The program’s academic co-chairs are Dr. Aliza Stark, whose research projects focus on nutrition education and health promotion to improve dietary habits, and Prof. Betty Schwartz, whose lab researches the role of diet in modulating cancer risk.

The Robert H. Smith Faculty of Agriculture, Food and Environment

Ranked among the top 30 agricultural schools worldwide, the Robert H.

The long list of world-changing breakthroughs developed by the faculty’s researchers include modern drip irrigation methods, the cherry tomato, returning fragrance to flowers, environmentally safe pesticides, improving pollination by manipulating honeybee behavior, and a slew of other advanced environmentally responsible agricultural techniques, especially under conditions of scarce water. Teaching and research activities at the institution consistently advance modern agriculture while training tomorrow's scientists and agriculturists.

The faculty welcomes international students from all over the world. Faculty graduates hold key positions in the agricultural industry in Israel and around the globe, and use their knowledge to compete in world markets.
