TECHNION - Israel Institute of Technology

Established over 70 years ago, the Technion is Israel's leading technological university, covering all major fields of engineering, science, architecture, and medicine.

In 1924, the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology, Israel's first modern university - opened its doors and began the historic task of preparing young men and women to build a new nation. The Technion came into existence as a training college for engineers. After the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, the Technion began the process of conversion into a modern technological university, covering all major fields of engineering, science, architecture, and medicine. In the early 1950s, it began the move from its original campus to its current modern 1.2 square kilometer campus, Technion City, on the eastern slopes of Mount Carmel. Today the Technion has more than 11,000 students, of whom more than 2,000 are graduate students.

For over 70 years the Technion has been Israel's primary technological university and its largest academic center of applied research. Over the years, its more than 40,000 graduates have made indispensable contributions to all aspects of Israel's development.
