About the Council for Higher Education of Israel

The ‘Study in Israel’ website is operated by the Council for Higher Education and the Planning and Budgeting Committee of Israel, the national institution responsible for matters of higher education in the country. CHE performs its functions in accordance with the powers conferred on it by the Council for Higher Education Law – 1958, and is responsible for regulating the higher education system in the country. CHE is a public, professional, academic, apolitical and independent entity. It is positioned between the government and higher education institutions, and deals with all matters of higher education in the country including setting policy, while ensuring the political independence, development and high quality of the academic system.

The Planning and Budgeting Committee (PBC) of the Council for Higher Education was established by a government decision in June 1977 to serve as an independent body between the government and higher education institutions in all matters relating to budgets for the higher education system.
