• Master of Science in Applied Information Science (Technion) & Master of Science Information Systems (Cornell) with a Concentration in Urban Tech is a dual degree program with the duration of 2-years.
  • This program is issued by Technion – Israel Institute of Technology & Cornell University.
  • A defining characteristic of urban areas is density – of built structures, people, vehicles, businesses, and a broad array of resources.  With this concentration comes enormous numbers of connections between the elements.
  • Urban Tech is the development and deployment of technology that helps residents, workers, and governments manage density and transform it into an advantage for all who live in, work in, and visit cities. 
  • In some cases, it is technology that is used exclusively in dense urban areas, like mass transportation, “smart” skyscrapers, and optimized surge traffic pricing. 
  • In others, it is technology that is used broadly but has a substantial role and unique challenges in the city, like autonomous vehicles, broadband networks, and efficient package delivery.
