Uri Sivan on Campus: Technion’s Reslience in Wartime

Resilience at the Technion: “We’ll Keep Doing What We’re Doing”

As the war with Iran continues and its effects are felt directly on the Technion campus, President Prof. Uri Sivan offers a message of unity, and determination. He emphasizes that despite disruptions and moments of uncertainty, the Technion remains steadfast in its mission to strengthen the state of Israel while solving some of humankind’s most intractable problems through science.

Faculty and researchers are adapting to the circumstances — researching, teaching, and supporting one another. Their approach reflects a shared spirit of resilience and continuity.

Prof. Sivan underscores that the Technion will persist in its efforts, expressing hope for resuming academic activity soon and reaffirming that, even under pressure, “we’ll keep doing what we’re doing.”

Note: This video was filmed before Iranian missiles struck the Technion campus, but Prof. Sivan’s words feel even more resonant today.
