HAITs Goals

• Aspiring towards excellence in instruction and research at the cutting edge of technological development by identifying new spheres of knowledge, emerging interdisciplinary subjects and innovative instructional technologies.

• Aspiring towards realization of students' intellectual and professional potential, and training personnel for careers in a constantly and rapidly changing technological world. HAIT offers a flexible range of opportunities to accommodate working students and enable the less affluent to maximize their self-fulfilment.

• Fostering close ties with science-based industries for cooperation in research and applied technology.

• Maintaining a highly regarded academic faculty and ensuring optimal conditions for professional and intellectual advancement.

Research in Exact Sciences and Technology

The HAIT faculty comprises about 200 faculty members; many of them engage in theoretical and applied research in the exact sciences and technology. Faculty members publish articles regularly in prestigious scientific journals and participate actively in international conferences. HAIT research is carried out in cooperation with the Weizmann Institute of Science, the Technion, Tel Aviv University and Ben Gurion University, as well as through collaborative agreements with universities and research institutes abroad.

Labs and Research Centers Recently Established:
