Students of all three levels (third year Bachelor's students, Master's students, and Doctoral candidates) are invited to complete a research internship at Israel's leading technical university, provided they have a GPA of 80 to 100 points (Grade 2.4) at minimum. Applications can be submitted at any time, but must be received by Technion at least three months prior to the planned research stay. Before applying, students must find a professor at Technion who is agreeable to mentoring them during their internship. To assist you with this, we are providing a list of Faculties/departments as well as of professors at Technion.
