Study Abroad in Israel: Semester & Year Programs at Tel Aviv University
Spring 2027: Study Abroad Courses at TAU
All courses, syllabi, dates and times below are subject to cancellation or change.
Classroom locations and the schedule will be posted closer to course start dates.
All students are responsible for carefully reading the Lowy International Academic Handbook prior to registering for courses. All the details are located in our Study Abroad Academic Policies page. In this handbook, students will find detailed and essential academic information that they are responsible for understanding regarding courses, TAU academic policies, course registration, important academic deadlines and dates, and more.
The Lowy International Study Abroad students must enroll in a minimum of 4 courses listed below during each semester (if your home school requires you to enroll in more than 4, you are required to adhere to your home school requirements).
Note that Hebrew Ulpan (the pre-term ulpan) is not part of the 4 courses but in addition to the 4 courses.
TAU does not permit, under any circumstances, taking any in-class (including mid or final) exams or final presentations early.
When selecting courses, it is thus very important to note below if there is an in-class final (or presentation) as the date and type of exam cannot be changed. Early departures from the program are not approved, nor are early or exception exams or presentations.
