Lady Davis Doctoral Fellowships at Hebrew University

9-12 months doctoral fellowship: The purpose of a Doctoral Fellowship is to enable a student to either pursue research, or consult with a scholar, or access specific manuscripts, all or any of which (research/scholar/manuscripts) are available only at the Hebrew University and which are necessary in order to complete the dissertation. In other words, students return to their University after the year of the Fellowship for the remaining time required to write their dissertations. The Fellowships are intended not only to promote an exchange of ideas and information, but also to cement personal relationships that will provide the basis for an ongoing academic liaison in the future. Prospective candidates must have an academic sponsor (i.e. establish contact with the relevant Faculty or Department at the Hebrew University, and ensure that there is a Faculty member willing to sponsor the application). Visit website for application information.

UPDATE: “The Trust, like all similar organizations, has suffered from the financial instability that has affected world markets. As a result of this uncertainty we have decided to temporarily suspend our Doctoral Fellowship Program for the academic year 2011-12 and 12-13. This decision was reached with great reluctance and after much deliberation on the subject. We will duly update the site as soon as the program is reinstated.”
