Tel Aviv University (TAU), located in Tel Aviv, Israel, is the largest university in the country and was established in 1956. It originated from the merging of three research institutes that were older than the State of Israel itself. As a comprehensive university, TAU offers a wide array of undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral programs across the spectrum of sciences, humanities, and arts. It is particularly noted for its strengths in the sciences and liberal arts, but it also houses one of Israel’s leading business schools. Tel Aviv University is also active in research, contributing significantly to fields such as engineering, computer science, and biotechnology. Its urban campus is a vibrant part of Tel Aviv’s cultural and academic life, drawing students from across Israel and around the world, reinforcing its reputation as a center of innovation and learning.
