A historic milestone for the North - Tel-Hai becomes a University.
Starting next academic year, Tel-Hai will officially become a university.
This is far more than a change in title- it is a strategic leap for higher education, research, and regional development in Northern Israel.
For MIGAL, this moment carries special meaning.
As Tel-Hai’s research institute, MIGAL stands at the intersection of applied research, academia, and real-world impact. The transition to a university framework strengthens our ability to translate scientific excellence into solutions for agriculture, food systems, health, climate resilience, and the regional economy.
A university in the Galilee means:
• Deeper integration between research and education
• Stronger attraction of talent, partnerships, and funding
• Expanded capacity to generate long-term regional and global impact
This step reinforces our shared mission: to build a thriving knowledge-based ecosystem in the North, rooted in excellence, relevance, and responsibility.
We look forward to the next chapter - one that expands opportunity, innovation, and impact for the region and beyond
