Water Engineering


 Water Engineering is a branch of civil engineering that specializes in designing water and sewage networks and wastewater treatment. It focuses on water control and pollution, water source engineering, and the disposal of human waste, industrial waste, and others.

Water engineering is defined as the application of scientific and engineering principles to improve the quality of water (water sources and soil), ensure safe water, clean air, and soil safety for human habitation, and preserve the life of other organisms, as well as treating polluted sites. Water engineering is primarily useful in developing facilities to protect water and manage natural resources appropriately.

A water engineer gives "special" attention to the biological, chemical, and physical interactions between air, land, and water, and seeks integrated technological solutions to manage resources, recycle waste, and various sources, avoiding environmental degradation and the spread of pollution in all its forms.

The mission of a water engineer revolves around protection (from further deterioration) and maintaining the current state. Water engineering is a combination of several sciences and engineering principles that interact with each other to form the foundation of this specialty. Among them are: civil engineering, chemical engineering, public health, mechanical engineering, chemistry, biology, and geology.


 4 semesters, divided over two academic years.


 The student receives a diploma in Water Engineering – Water Engineering specialization from the Ministry of Labor – The Government Institute for Professional Qualifications (M.A.T).


 

A) The applicant must have earned a high school diploma, or have a matriculation certificate (Bagrut) with 3 units in mathematics, 3 units in English, and 2 units in Hebrew with a grade of at least 55. Students who have studied in high schools abroad must have their credentials evaluated by the Ministry of Education's Certificate Equivalency Department.

B) The college may admit the student conditionally if they pass the Bagrut exams in two out of the three subjects (Hebrew, English, Mathematics). In this case, the student will have the opportunity to meet all the requirements during the first academic year. The student cannot advance to the second year before meeting the admission requirements. The college provides the opportunity for students to study and take the exam for the subject they are missing.

  1. The student must pass a personal interview. (Students who meet the conditions mentioned above will be invited for an interview. After reviewing the interview results, the best candidates will be selected, as the number of seats is limited).

Exemption from the Bagrut Certificate:

  • A student can be exempt from the Bagrut certificate if they have a high school completion certificate and are over 35 years old.
  • Or if they hold a first-degree certificate from an accredited institution in the country.
    Note: The above conditions are subject to change according to the college and the technological institute (M.A.T) requirements.

Transfer from Other Colleges:
Students may transfer from other colleges based on the following conditions:

  1. The student must have a Bagrut certificate, or its equivalent, and meet the applicable admission requirements for the year of transfer.
  2. Their studies at the previous college must have been in a regular format.
  3. The student will only be accepted into the college during the academic year after presenting a clearance certificate from the previous college, along with a transcript and personal file.
  4. A student transferring to the college at the beginning of the academic year will only be accepted after reviewing the grades obtained at the previous college. Final acceptance will be confirmed after approval by M.A.T. The transfer request should be submitted to the education secretary according to the college's admission and registration system, and the request will be forwarded to the college administration for necessary procedures.


  1. Stormwater management in cities to protect water environments and ensure drainage for excess water while controlling flooding.
  2. Aesthetic design of wetlands as an integrated part of the environment rather than just a facility for treating and improving polluted water.
  3. Designing water treatment plants and facilities for polluted water, with the reuse of treated wastewater for groundwater recharge and agricultural and other common uses.
  4. Management and treatment of surface water and polluted water resulting from various human activities.
  5. Conducting scientific environmental research on water to identify pollutants, classify them, and invent methods for treating and safely disposing of them.
  6. Working in the water department of municipalities and local councils.
  7. Working in various government offices and departments.
