Summer Research
General info
The Faculty of Biotechnology and Food Engineering takes part in the Technion Summer Research Program in Science and Engineering (1–31 July 2027). Outstanding undergraduate students join a leading laboratory, carry out a research project under the personal guidance of a faculty member, and present their findings to the research group at the end of the program.
Accepted students receive a scholarship covering accommodation, health insurance, lab work, mentorship and social activities. Questions: onlinesummer@technion.ac.il.
Required background
