University of Haifa sits atop the Carmel Mountain, in the City of Haifa, and by the Mediterranean Sea. In an atmosphere of mutual respect, we investigate challenges locally in our labs and community, and identify and implement solutions that will have a global impact.
THINKING LOCALLY, ACTING GLOBALLY.
University of Haifa has set ambitious and essential goals dedicated to the wellbeing of our global society. Our research agenda focuses on these areas supported by our fundamental values of inclusion, equality, and justice through shared society.
Our $150M campaign will build infrastructure and expand research in the areas of equality, environment, health, and humanities and technology to maximize our impact on 21st Century global challenges. Through this investment, the University will be able to build upon the successes of the past 50 years and reach further than ever before to provide access and resources for our diverse student body, establish new areas of study, recruit and retain top faculty, and expand our spaces for innovation. Our ultimate campaign goal will be measured by impact. It will enable groundbreaking discoveries within our natural laboratories of Mountain-City-Sea with global implications for our changing climate and evolving society.
