Abstract
The creation of the Faculty of Sciences at Tel-Hai Academic College marks a significant milestone in the development of a university in the northeastern region of Israel. This article discusses the collaborative efforts of the Galilee Research Institute (MIGAL) and the Faculty of Sciences and Technology at Tel-Hai Academic College. MIGAL is composed of researchers in the fields of agriculture, biotechnology, nutrition, and other related areas. Its aim is to promote higher education in a remote region of Israel and a better quality of life. MIGAL has recently set up a branch Science and Technology Faculty at Tel-Hai Academic College, thus enabling the college to meet State requirements to become an academic college, an important step forward towards the establishment of a full-fledged university in this region.
