Dear graduate and prospective students in Computer Science,
The Technion’s Computer Science Department, established in 1969, is among the leading departments in its field. Research at the faculty is at the forefront of science and technology and is conducted by more than 50 internationally renowned faculty members. The research spans a wide range of areas, including algorithms and computational theory, artificial intelligence and machine learning (including natural language processing, computer vision, and image processing), cryptography and cybersecurity, software and computer systems, data processing and databases, computer graphics and computational geometry, robotics and automation, bioinformatics, quantum information, and computational mathematics and optimization.
Graduate studies are based primarily on independent research conducted under the supervision of faculty members. Research is a demanding and challenging process, but also a rewarding and formative one. To ensure your success, the faculty provides a comprehensive support framework, including competitive fellowships, housing options, opportunities to participate in teaching, and support for attending and presenting research at international conferences.
The research environment at the faculty is among the most advanced, offering access to high-performance computing resources, cutting-edge infrastructure, and laboratories equipped with specialized hardware. We actively encourage interdisciplinary and collaborative research—both within the Technion and with leading academic institutions domestically and worldwide—as well as participation in research internships as part of academic training.
Our graduate students are an integral part of the department’s academic community and take an active role in both research and teaching. We view you as the future of the department and of the field of computer science, and we place strong emphasis on promoting and supporting your continued path—whether in academia, advanced training locally or abroad, or in leading roles in industry.
I am confident that your graduate studies at the Technion’s Computer Science Department will be a meaningful, challenging, and enriching experience—both professionally and personally.
