Chemistry serves the basis for many diverse aspects of everyday life, and is a crucial aspect of many of the natural sciences, including biology, medicine, computer science and electronics, geology, and agriculture.
Chemistry is an applied science, as seen in the development and synthesis of pharmaceutical drugs, material engineering, nanotechnology, and more. But no less importantly, chemistry is also a fundamental science that investigates the basic principles of nature and how these relate to changes in matter through understanding the nature of chemical bonding, molecular interactions, etc.
Chemistry is also at the heart of Israel’s industry, ranging from traditional chemical industry, through the food, textile, pharmaceutical industries, all the way to forensic science.
The Institute of chemistry at the Hebrew University is a leading institution in Israel, and is well recognized world-wide in all these fields of chemical research.
If you are curious and motivated in studies at the forefront of current scientific research, we invite you to register to the Chemistry program at the Hebrew University. This will afford you the chance to study with first rate lecturers and researchers, and to learn first-hand and be directly involved in state of the art research as performed by premier experts.

Master’s Degree in Chemistry is, essentially, a passage between the Bachelor’s degree, based mainly on the rigorous curriculum of introductory (theoretical and practical) courses, and the Doctoral studies, based mostly on independent research. As such, this program introduces for the first time the methods and techniques of scientific research in a particular area of Chemistry via undertaking a novel research project under the supervision of a faculty member from the Institute of Chemistry. However, students also broaden their knowledge of chemistry through a selection of taught courses and are able to tailor their curriculum to meet personal research interests.
A list of career opportunities for the M.Sc. in Chemistry is long and diverse. Graduates of this program have many opportunities to use their knowledge within a range of research sectors, including leading roles within chemical and related industries, hi-tech, healthcare, educational institutions or public services. Masters of Chemistry are in high demand in essentially all branches of the national job market. Yet, the degree should be a degree of choice for students who plan to pursue PhD studies in one of the traditional or interdisciplinary sub-areas of the field.
According to the HUJI Masters Regulations a candidate should be in possession of Bachelor’s degree from an Israeli University or College of Higher Education with the GPA of 80 (on a 0-100 scale). Naturally, MSc candidates with foreign degrees are also admitted to HUJI. Foreign degrees are evaluated and approved as equivalent by the HUJI Admissions Office.
In order to be admitted as a candidate, you must find an available position in one of the research groups of the Institute of Chemistry.
Candidates having lower GPAs or holding degrees not in Chemical sciences can be admitted as Master’s Degree candidates only after formal approval by the Head of School of Chemistry and will be required to complement studies depending on their background, GPA and the desired area of specialization.

Registration for a Master’s degree consists of two stages:
please note that:
Further information can be obtained by telephone 02-6586722 or email. Registration opens in January.
Admitions starts at January. It is highly recommended that students register by the end of July of the same year in order to maximize their chances for acceptance and to enable the teaching program to integrate students into practice positions and award scholarships to those who are worthy and suitable.
The Institute of chemistry offers five tracks of specialization:
The Department of Chemistry offers PhD degree in various groundbreaking research fields such us: Organic chemistry, Material Science, Physical chemistry, Theoretical chemistry, Biology-Chemistry and Applied chemistry. More information on the various faculty members and their research areas can be found at the institute of chemistry website.
The PhD research and studies usually takes 4-5 years. During the PhD period the candidates are fully support by scholarship and are eligible to join as a teaching assistance to the institute staff.
More information about the PhD studies and research can be found at the website of the Authority for Research Students in the Hebrew University.
The Institute of Chemistry welcomes international students to join our diverse and vibrant scientific community. The institute regularly hosts international students and researchers at all stages of their academic studies and carriers, including Master’s students, PhD students and postdoctoral fellows from around the world.
Many students are attracted to Jerusalem for its long and rich history and culture, or to its energetic and unique spirit in the present. Others are attracted to Jerusalem’s world leading research and its reputation for international entrepreneurship.
The institute of Chemistry affords opportunities for Foreign students to visit and study in Israel, as well as opportunities for Israeli students to study abroad. You are encouraged to look at the available programs and find one that suits you.
