Masa Volunteers -University of Haifa 6 weeks (MasaGo!)

Haifa is Israels third largest city and one of its most beautiful and multicultural. Haifa has gorgeous beaches, scenic views from Mount Carmel, and forests perfect for hiking. It is the home of the magnificent Bahai Gardens and Temple, theaters, concert halls, restaurants, and museums. Two of Israels leading universities, the University of Haifa and the Technion, are located in Haifa, giving the city a vibrant student life and lively nightlife. While living in the cultural hub of northern Israel, you will gain incredible career experience in a top organization in your field, including world class universities such as The Technion (A.K.A Israel MIT), international technology park, Matam, which is home to the R&D divisions of Apple, Google, Qualcomm, IBM & Intel and more. Stroll home from your internship on one of Haifas four amazing beaches or catch a lift on the Carmelit Subway, Israel™s only underground subway system. The people of Haifa are from diverse religions, cultures, and ethnicities. Jews and Arabs live side by side, and sites of religious worship of the main religions can be found there. Jewish life in Haifa is rich and diverse, with the active Boston-Haifa Connection spearheading creative Jewish cultural events and programs that are open and welcoming.
