Relocation to the Galilee
The Relocation Unit at the Azrieli Faculty of Medicine, Bar-Ilan University in the Galilee
When you join the Azrieli Faculty of Medicine in the Galilee, it is not only about a degree, a career, and the lifestyle that comes with them. It also means living in one of the most beautiful and inspiring regions in Israel. It means connecting with a physical and human landscape unlike any other. It means becoming part of an authentic Israeli community, with a sense of warmth and tranquility that is increasingly hard to find in the country's center. It means moving to the Galilee.
Do you think we'd let you make that transition without helping? Think again!
Our Relocation Office was established to make your move to the Galilee as smooth and welcoming as possible, and to assist with every aspect of the transition. We are here to connect you with both the people and places that make the Galilee unique, to support you along the way, and to help find solutions tailored to your needs. Our goal is simple: to make you feel at home.
🏠 Housing
Safed or Rosh Pina? A kibbutz or a nearby moshav? A student village? A shared apartment? A view of the Sea of Galilee or Mount Hermon?
The Relocation Office will help you find the housing option that best suits your needs and will offer a substantial housing scholarship to students who relocate to the Galilee during their first academic year.
💼 Employment
Finding employment is a major consideration for students. And not only for students, but also for partners and spouses relocating with them to the Galilee.
The Relocation Office will connect you and your partner with local employers and relevant job opportunities.
👨👩👧👦 Community
Community is an integral part of life in the Galilee. This is true both for the students you will study alongside and for the people in the communities where you choose to live.
The Relocation Office will connect you with cultural events, holiday celebrations, excursions, and all the activities that help you feel part of the community.
💃 Leisure
Medical students may not have a lot of free time, but hey, you deserve to enjoy yourselves too, right?
The Relocation Office will make sure you know about every pub, party, concert, and Pilates class happening in the area.
🏞️ Nature
When you say Galilee, you say nature!
Without taking anything away from other regions of Israel, here you'll find some of the country's most beautiful landscapes, the most refreshing streams, and the most diverse hiking trails. And if you promise to keep it a secret, the Relocation Office will introduce you to hidden gems, special spots, and local favorites known only to Galilee insiders.
🏫 Education
Already parents?
The Galilee may be one of the best places in Israel to raise a family. Can you picture your children running barefoot on the grass, far from busy roads and air pollution?
The Relocation Office will help turn that vision into reality.
