With a student body of over 5,000, the Ruppin Academic Center is one of the largest and most prominent colleges in Israel. Since its establishment in 1949 as a training and management center for Israel’s agricultural sector, it has evolved to become a leader in social sciences, management, engineering and marine sciences. The Center offers groundbreaking programs that are committed to developing theoretical and practical expertise, with a goal of tackling Israel's most pressing socioeconomic challenges. 
Our Programs: Ruppin awards B.A., B.Sc., BSN, BSW, M.A. and M.B.A. degrees from our three schools: Social Sciences and Management, Engineering and Marine Sciences.
Our Campuses: Ruppin is located on two beautiful campuses. The Emek Hefer Campus, in the green region of Israel's heartland, houses Social Sciences and Management as well as Engineering. The bayside Michmoret Campus, situated on Israel’s Mediterranean Coast, is the base for Marine Sciences.  
Ruppin stands out not only for its academic excellence and unique fields of knowledge, but also because we entail the spirit of modern-day Zionism. Named after Dr. Arthur Ruppin, the pioneering Jewish sociologist, the college was the first extra-university center to received bachelor degree accreditation from the Council for Higher Education. Ruppin has succeeded in maintaining its spirit of innovation and pioneering from the very beginning, and has made significant advances over the past few years in academics, infrastructure, public reputation and social involvement. 
Ruppin is heavily invested in cultivating a new generation of leaders who possess moral conscience, social involvement and environmental awareness. To this end, the Center fosters its two flagship tenets: the research and study of Immigration and Social Integration (in response to Israel's most challenging social issue), and the further development of Marine Sciences (focusing on utilization of the sea as a source of economic development and research.
