Ever since I was a little girl growing up in Haifa, I dreamed about studying at the Technion. My parents have no scientific background, but they gave me the best education they could afford, including an annual pass to the Israel National Museum of Science, Technology, and Space. That led to my falling in love […]
I’m 28 years old and in my third year in the Henry and Marilyn Taub Faculty of Computer Science at the Technion — a place that has shaped not only my academic journey but also my understanding of what it means to strive for excellence. I was born and raised in Ra’anana, just north of Tel Aviv, where my curiosity and love of learning opened the door to the Yachad Program for Gifted Students. In high school, I finished at the top of my class and received an excellence award. But the moments that stayed with me most were outside…

At 15, when a neurological condition took Tobias Weinberg’s ability to speak, aspects of his personality became more difficult to express. Typing to communicate, he struggled to keep up in conversations, especially to make the jokes or sarcastic comments that had been his norm. And his first text-to-voice device was monotone, with Mexican or Spanish accents but not his native Argentinian. “The monotone voices, the timing of interjections and conveying my personality through this new way of communication was definitely frustrating,” wrote Weinberg, now a doctoral student and Siegel PiTech Fellow at Cornell Tech. As part of the Matter of…

The release of these rankings is especially timely, as the Technion begins the academic year with a new cohort of international students participating in an immersive four-year bachelor’s degree program. The Technion is a prestigious…
