The Rothman Leadership Program brings together an exceptional group of lay leaders from across the United States and prepares them to become powerful ambassadors for the Technion. Through exclusive meetings with faculty and administrators, tech entrepreneurs, and scientists, Fellows explore the extraordinary role the Technion has played in establishing the State of Israel, building the country’s innovation-based economy, safeguarding its people, and advancing Israel’s global leadership in human health, sustainability, and other critical fields.
Fellows will deepen their knowledge, strengthen their skills as Jewish communal volunteers, expand their networks, and gain the confidence and tools to inspire others to support the Technion.
Sponsored by Jeri and Joel Rothman, coordinated by the American Technion Society, and developed from the ATS 21st Century Leadership Development Program.

What Fellows Are Saying:
“It was an extraordinary experience to visit the Haifa campus, engage professors and student reservists as well as get a taste of some of the cutting-edge research being conducted at Technion.”
“I feel very lucky to have been in small meetings with former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, Rabbi Wolpe, and Ambassador Michael Oren, and think about that often.”
“The opportunity to meet with and hear from the reservist students was the most moving part of the program. Their resilience and dedication provide so much optimism for the Technion and Israel’s future.”
