Following the lead of five other Israeli institutions of higher learning, the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa (opens in a new tab) this week said it will provide assistance of NIS 6,000 (~$1,564) to students who were mobilized by an emergency call-up. The grant is intended for tuition fees, dormitory rent, and other tuition-related payments, it said.
“A total of 2,500 students left everything behind and were mobilized by an emergency call-up order to ensure our right to a life of security and tranquility in this country,” Technion President Prof. Uri Sivan (opens in a new tab) said. “It’s important that each and every one of them knows that the entire Technion community is mobilized and harnessed for their sake. For their benefit, we established a special assistance fund together with friends of the Technion in Israel and around the world, and today we announce that each of them will receive a grant of NIS 6,000.
