Prof. Ami Pedahzur - Director

    I am a professor at the Leon H. Charney School of Marine Sciences at the University of Haifa.
    Since 2023, I have directed three research units at the University of Haifa:

    The Chaikin Institute for Geo-Strategy
    The Ezri Center for Iran and Gulf States Research
    Wydra Center for Ports and Shipping research

    I also lead the MA program in Maritime Strategy.
    From 2005 to 2023, I taught at The University of Texas at Austin. Most recently, I held the Ralph W Yarborough Centennial Professorship of Liberal Arts.
    I have researched how technology affects humans in war for the past ten years. Before, I studied the Israeli Radical Right, Terrorism, and Counterterrorism.
    I hold a Ph.D. in political science from the University of Haifa.
