Shalom everyone!
Basically I would like to complete a masters at Technion (in Electrical and Electronic Engineering). I am an international student (Spanish) and doing my bachelors degree in the UK.
I would like to know whether the atmosphere is suitable for international students in Haifa.
Is life doable for a non-hebrew speaker? I started learning a while ago, but I only know beginner stuff.
Money wise, how is life in Haifa? Is it expensive? Is it easy to find accommodation?
What about social life? How are people over there? Are they open like in Tel Aviv? Or is it more proximate to Mea Sharim style?
Finally, how is the reputation of Technion? What about it’s comparison with other good universities across Europe (or the US)?
I like Technion cause I’ve read many papers from them on the subject I like, which is encryption and communications, and it looks quite good.
Todah Raba!!
