Technion Update

Good evening,

• In view of the current assessment of the situation, which remains unchanged, the Technion campuses will continue to operate under the emergency routine established over the past week. We are adhering to the Home Front Command’s guidelines and are allowing flexibility for remote work, subject to approval by supervisors as necessary.
• This week, our various academic departments and units will complete emergency drills for accessing protected areas, under the guidance of the Security and Emergency Unit. Please be aware of the drill schedules in your building.
• The Department of Biotechnology and Food Engineering, in collaboration with the Mutual Responsibility Center and with the support of numerous Technion staff volunteers, prepared, packaged, and delivered approximately 300 parcels of challah and cakes to our reserve soldiers in celebration of Shabbat. We commend everyone involved!
• Next week, we will continue to focus on activities that foster social engagement. The Mutual Responsibility Center remains open for ongoing volunteer opportunities. For more details, visit (Hebrew): https://technion.my.canva.site/
• The Office of the Dean of Students has established the “Technion Resilience Center” under the Center for Student Counseling and Support. This center offers professional assistance to students dealing with stress, emotional challenges, and academic preparation. We encourage you to reach out to us at 077-8874112 or via email at counsel@technion.ac.il.

Wishing you all a great week ahead
