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.
What if a single breath — or a small wearable patch — could reveal disease long before symptoms appear? For years, Prof. Hossam Haick of the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology has been turning that revolutionary idea into a reality. By identifying invisible chemical signals emitted by the human body, Prof. Haick has helped […]
A Dream Realized Four years after first approaching the Technion, I was accepted. Then October 7 happened, postponing the start of classes. Today I am in perhaps the University’s toughest program: a 9-year track to earn an M.D. in the Ruth and Bruce Rappaport Faculty of Medicine and a bachelor’s degree in the Faculty of […]
I thank my late uncle, a fallen IDF soldier, for steering me on to this path. He studied computer engineering at the Technion, and his name is on the University’s memorial wall. I didn’t have the honor of meeting him, but I remember stories about him and knew I wanted to continue his legacy here. […]
If New York City hopes to maintain its international reputation as a technological powerhouse, then it must recognize and accelerate the vital role international collaboration plays in its progress. Cornell Tech and the Joan & Irwin Jacobs Technion–Cornell Institute on Roosevelt Island make clear the undeniable local and global benefit of academic collaboration across borders and how its impact extends far beyond the sum of its parts. In 2010, when the city requested proposals from leading universities to create an academic hub focused on applied sciences, entrepreneurship and job creation, Cornell University and the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology…
I am a fourth-year student in the Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the Technion, majoring in mapping and geo-information. This field is meaningful to me because it combines technology and real-world impact. For example, using remote sensing and mapping, we can help farmers practice precise agriculture — detecting which parts of a field […]
I was born in Moldova, where my family ran the local office of the Jewish Agency. I watched them help other Jewish families fulfill their dream of coming to Israel, long before we managed to do it ourselves. We finally made aliyah, and today I am an undergraduate in The Henry and Marilyn Taub Faculty […]
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…
In my final year as a Technion undergraduate, I tested positive for a BRCA mutation. This means I face an increased risk for breast and other cancers. This revelation altered the course of my life — making my longstanding desire to do scientific research not just an academic pursuit, but a personal one. I earned […]
I am 27 years old and was born and raised in Even Yehuda, a small town in central Israel, where I learned early on the value of community, responsibility, and giving of myself to others. From a young age, I was motivated academically and socially. I completed high school in three years with high honors, […]
