This study investigates the evaluation of the "shortened track" admission route at Technion, a unique alternative pathway for accepting students. The research aims to assess the effectiveness of this admission route in increasing diversity among students and explore strategies to attract underrepresented populations. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative and qualitative methods. Semi-structured interviews were conducted in two stages to gather comprehensive insights and perspectives. The findings contribute to the ongoing improvement of the shortened track program and provide valuable recommendations for enhancing inclusivity and equity at Technion.
