  • Letter from the Head of the Program

    Simply put, our honors program undertakes to shape Israel’s future leaders. Three decades from its launching, Amirim graduates now populate numerous positions of influence in academia, law, industry, business, journalism and education. Our mission is to nurture and challenge, empower and humble, instruct and edify the minds who will define Israeli culture in years to come.

  • International Activities

    As part of their concluding workshop, third-year Amirim students participate in a study tour abroad: in recent years, students travelled to England (2018) and Berlin (2019). Due to COVID-19, planned trips to China (2020), and India (2021), had to be cancelled. But Trips are planned to Venice (2022), Paris (2023), and China (2024). These trips, which are coordinated and led by senior lecturers in the program, represent an educational - and also social - climax, integrating themes from a wide range of Amirim courses, while marking, for students, the culmination of three years of intense study together.amirim
