The Foundation supports Hebrew University by supporting projects in the Rothberg International School as well as the School of Engineering and Computer Sciences. A grant to Rothberg was awarded to transform the teaching methods of the Hebrew language ulpan classes through the development of computer technology for second-language teaching. In addition a special program grant aims to link Israelis with international students in order to guarantee that overseas students meet their Israeli colleagues in informal situations and have a chance to develop relationships.
