What our students say
Israel is an amazing country. In my opinion, BGU is the best choice to study the history of modern Israel. The Ben-Gurion Library has a large number of original documents about Israel’s history and David Ben-Gurion. BGU also has a great learning atmosphere. The class sizes are small, and they are always conducted in the form of seminars, so students can communicate directly with the professors and ask plenty of questions. I love it here. My time at BGU was a very interesting and wonderful experience for me that I will never forget it.
