Question

Dear Rabbi, shlita, Hello and blessings. I have been accepted for an administrative position at one of the major universities in the country. The main role involves dealing with the financial aspects of research conducted at the university, in collaboration with funding bodies such as the Ministry of Science and various research funds. My dilemma is whether it is permissible from a halachic perspective to take on this job, as the university promotes research in various fields, some of which may be contrary to Torah and Halacha. I would greatly appreciate the Rabbi's guidance on this matter. Thank you very much!

Answer

Hello and blessings. Since the work is technical and not involved with the content, there is no halachic objection to working there.
