A message from the president
Dear students,
Reichman University is the home where you acquire your academic education, which in many cases determines your personal and professional future.
However, in the modern era, the acquisition of knowledge is merely the beginning. Your time as a student is a period in which you should strive to expand your horizons, shape your identity as an adult, strengthen the values on which you were raised, set goals for yourself, and acquire the tools that will allow you to lead and make sound decisions at every stage of your life going forward.
It is these principles that guide the administration and faculty of Reichman University. In our view, shaping the next generation of Israeli leaders, across all disciplines and in all areas of life, is a mission of the highest order. The students who walk through the gates of this unique institution are our partners — our partners in realizing our vision and goals, and our partners in working towards the betterment of Israeli society, the progress of our country, and the advancement of humanity as a whole.
The modern era, marked by accelerated technological development — first and foremost the artificial intelligence revolution — presents us with fundamental questions that did not previously exist. To navigate the challenges of our uncertain times, in which there is no agreement on what is true and what is false, in which external influences like social media and modern technology infiltrate our personal lives and our psyches, and in which the demands of the workforce are rapidly changing, it is crucial to develop a dynamic toolbox that integrates interdisciplinary knowledge and tools for independent and critical thinking with decision-making strategies and creativity. Most importantly, a set of humane and Zionist values should be formulated to serve as a guiding compass to help you make the right decisions for yourself and for the greater good of our country and society.
At Reichman University’s various schools, you will encounter some of the most esteemed lecturers and researchers in their fields. Their commitment to our students is renowned, and is reflected every year in in the satisfaction surveys conducted by the National Union of Israeli Students. Our campus is also home to international students from approximately 90 countries who come here to pursue undergraduate and graduate degrees in English at the Raphael Recanati International School. This diverse community creates a unique multicultural atmosphere.
Alongside your academic pursuits, you are invited to take advantage of the wide array of extra-curricular and social activities that we offer. These are only some of the aspects that make studying at Reichman University a unique and formative experience.
Prof. Boaz Ganor
President of Reichman University
