There needs to be a Middlebury program in Tel Aviv. Best city in world A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
I learned about the lab and research culture in Israel. It was very interesting to see how friendly and approachable everyone is. In addition, I do feel like I learned more about the field of cancer research and had a great opportunity to learn new lab techniques in cutting edge facilities and with knowledgable mentors.

I gained a better understanding of the world around me and of myself.

So worthwhile. A student - Wellesley College View Entire Review
As someone who'd been to Israel multiple times before attending TAU, I chose this program more for academic purposes than cultural ones.
