Highlights

A typical week in the program will consist of classes at the beginning of each week and various academic and historical tiyulim (field trips) at the end of the week. All trips will be facilitated by an Israeli guide and monitored for security purposes. Classes will be conducted by an Israeli professor, an FSU professor, FSU graduate students, and occasionally guest lecturers. By living on the kibbutz, students will get a complete cultural experience through their interaction with the residents, allowing them to live and work alongside the Israelis. Ultimately, the program offers an amazing opportunity to learn and understand the Israeli way of life and provide an unforgettable experience abroad for students of all disciplines.
