Supervisors

To address these rising challenges, the ITC faculty recruited 16 funded doctoral researchers. Every student is supervised by one main supervisor and a co-supervisor, both from different fields (social sciences & humanities and engineering), however, with equal responsibilities!

Besides, many doctoral researchers are co-supervised by industrial representatives and other senior staff members at TAU and other universities.
