Advanced Degrees

 

In recent years, the Diversity Unit supported several advanced programs. The groups active this year, which represent four diversity populations, hold group meetings on academic and sociocultural aspects unique to the diversity groups. In addition, two-three joint meetings of all groups will be held, with emphasis on academic skills. Dr. Ofir Hadad, who heads the “First in Research” program, is academically responsible for the four programs, and Noga Pato, Project Coordinator at the Diversity Unit, is responsible for coordinating all the groups logistically.
