The Technion’s story has been intertwined with Israel’s for more than a century, from laying the foundations for a new nation to shaping its future.
The most popular programs — electrical and computer engineering, aerospace engineering, mechanical engineering, and civil and environmental engineering — are engines of innovation, powering Israel’s recovery and growth. Science faculties like physics and biology have seen remarkable growth, with some programs expanding by 20% or more. The Office of the Dean of Students and the […]
Technion graduates have a high likelihood of success according to two recent independent studies. The first report, which came out earlier this year, concluded that the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, is the leading provider of talent for major tech companies in Israel and abroad. The second report, released in September, ranked the Technion in the top ten worldwide for entrepreneurial success for undergraduates. 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…

Researchers from the Faculty of Data and Decision Sciences at the Technion have developed a technology capable of identifying various aspects of a reader’s interaction with a text that is based solely on their eye movements. The team’s findings were presented at Association for Computational Linguistics, a conference in the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP) in Vienna. The research was led by doctoral student Omer Shubi, together with master’s student Cfir Hadar, under the supervision of Dr. Yevgeni Berzak. People read texts with different goals. Whether it’s a novel, a cooking recipe, a newspaper article, or a scientific paper,…

In days when many students find themselves cut off from educational frameworks due to war, evacuation or instability – the “Focus Hour” project proves how a single initiative, born out of chaos, can become an island of routine and learning. This is a volunteer project that provides free private lessons via Zoom to evacuee students from all over the country. So far, hundreds of volunteers have participated in it and hundreds of students have benefited from it, and it doesn’t look like it will stop anytime soon. It all started with a sense of frustration. Ohad Tshuva, an electrical engineering…
