Overview

What is the Entrepreneurship (BA) & Computer Science (BSc)?

You learn the full entrepreneurial process, from spotting an opportunity and securing resources to building a business model, while getting the same analytical foundation as Reichman’s computer science degree. Reichman notes that with today’s AI tools, teams can build and validate products fast enough to turn a venture into reality before graduation. Students can intern for academic credit at startups, VC firms and accelerators.

✓A good fit if you…

  • Want to write the code and the business plan for your own product
  • Enjoy math. The CS side covers calculus, linear algebra, algorithms and complexity.
  • Want a tech degree with mentors from Israel’s startup ecosystem
  • Are an oleh or olah under 27 who can start within 3 years of aliyah

!Think twice if you…

  • Want a lighter technical load. This is a full BSc in Computer Science.
  • Only want computer science. Reichman’s BSc in Computer Science is the single-major option.
  • Need the lowest possible tuition. Reichman is a private university.

Likely eligible for Student Authority aid

You’re under 27 with 26 months left to start. The grant covers up to the standard state tuition, so expect to pay the rest of Reichman’s fee.

A guide, not a ruling. The program must be recognized by the Student Authority. The 3-year window doesn’t count regular army service, national service or Masa programs. If you get any grant, tell Reichman’s tuition office so it can revise your payment plan.

i

Not an oleh? Look at Masa. Reichman lists Masa grants for international students aged 18–35. They depend on your country, age and program and cover the first year only. You apply after you’re accepted, do 30 hours of volunteering, can’t hold a work visa while funded, and the grant stops if you make aliyah and start receiving government aid.

Olim, read this before budgeting. The Student Authority pays up to the standard state tuition, which Nefesh B’Nefesh currently lists as ₪12,017 a year for a bachelor’s. At universities it reimburses you after you submit proof of payment. Reichman’s fee is well above that, so plan for the difference and get figures in writing before you pay the deposit.
