Azrieli Graduate Studies Fellowship
The Azrieli Graduate Studies Fellowship offers generous financial support to the best and brightest graduate students at accredited institutions of higher learning in Israel, who will use their training to become leaders in their respective fields.
Our goal is to create a cadre of leading professionals and academics who will increase the pool of technological and scholarly human resources in Israel. This network of leading professionals and academics will raise Israel’s profile internationally and maintain strong links between Israel and the rest of the world.
Applications for the 2020-2021 academic year will be accepted beginning December 2019.

The Azrieli International Postdoctoral Fellowship provides generous financial support for outstanding scholars to conduct research at accredited institutions in Israel. Our program develops academic leaders who not only excel in their area of research, but also promote academic and professional links between Israel and the rest of the world.
The fellowship is open to Canadian citizens, or to those who have obtained their PhD degree at a recognized Canadian university. Candidates are selected based on their record of academic and research achievement alongside personal merits, leadership qualities and engagement with society.
Online applications are now open.
Deadline for application submissions: November 7, 2019.
