In 1924, the first class of the Technion opened in Haifa. It is hard to believe today that from that modest classroom on the fringes of the British Empire grew the Technion, one of the world’s leading technological research institutions. The story of the Technion’s 100 years on Mount Carmel offers a fascinating perspective on the history of the State of Israel, which the Technion grew alongside and supported. It is nearly impossible to imagine today’s 75-year-old State of Israel, with its strong economy and scientific and technological achievements, without the Technion. From the pre-state era, through dramatic wartime moments, the birth of the Startup Nation, and groundbreaking research on a global scale – the Technion has always been there.
