The faculty course catalog contains the curriculum for all degree programs that the school offers. Here you will find also descriptions of the various programs.
Students who graduate the programs listed above can continue their studies to higher degrees in a variety of programs, in accordance with the requirements of the relevant program. Transition between the different programs during the B.Sc. is possible, based on available space and grades (it may be necessary to complete certain courses). A description of the different programs is given below, and in addition you can consult the faculty course catalog for further information.
The school encourages excellent students in a variety of ways. Excelling students in the different undergraduate programs will be given high achievement awards, according to the rules of the faculty of science, and the university.
For any further questions, contact the teaching affairs secretary Mrs. Yael Ben-Lulu.
The B.Sc. in electrical and computer engineering specializing in microelectronics and optoelectronics is intended to train engineers who can combine the technological maturity of the microelectronics with the diverse possibilities that can be found in optoelectronics.
The graduates of the four year program will have thorough knowledge in mathematics, physics, computer science and electronics. The curriculum includes significant training in applied physics, giving the student the ability to plan and develop micro electronic and electro optic systems. The program is unique in Israel, at a high level, designed to meet the standards of the forefront of the scientific research and industry, and aimed at providing the leaders of tomorrow in the industry and academy in Israel and worldwide. The first two years are designed to deepen the student's knowledge in mathematics, physics and computer science, giving the student tools for precise physical and engineering way of thinking. In the third and fourth years the students choose one group out of several groups of courses specializing in different subjects: in micro-electronics (micro-electronic devices, VLSI design, material characterization) or opto-electronics (laser physics, optical and quantum communications, opto-electronic devices) while emphasizing engineering and computational applications.
Students who have not taken at least 5 units of physics in high school are recommended to take a preparation course in physics.
In order to graduate the student must complete a final project, that will involve finding a practical solution to an engineering problem, using the skills he or she has learned during their studies. The project will be performed under the guidance of professors from the university, together and experts from the hi-tech industry in Israel.
Excelling students will be able to join the combined program in computer engineering and M.B.A., from the third year and on.
Graduates of the computer engineering program who qualify for the M.Sc. program in applied physics, will need to take a year to complete the relevant courses required for that program.
