Fellowships for up to one year are offered for postdoctoral study at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. Prospective candidates must 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.
Types of Fellowships and Minimum Criteria for Eligibility
The Lady Davis Trust offers three different Fellowships:
1. for Visiting Professors
2. for Post-doctoral researchers
3. for Doctoral students
To Doctoral Candidates:
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. 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.
THE MINIMUM CRITERIA FOR ELIGIBILITY ARE:
Visiting Professorships - you must be a full or an associate professor.
Post-doctoral researchers - if you are applying for the Academic Year 2011-2012 you must have received your Doctorate not earlier than the first of October, 2007.
Doctoral students - you must be enrolled in a recognized doctoral program at a university outside Israel.
The following information includes the Period of each Fellowship, Stipend and Rent Allowance:
Visiting Professorships: 2 to 4 months; $ 2400*; $250 rental allowance.
Post-Doctoral Researchers: 9-12 months; NIS. 5404 for candidates who have held their Doctorates for less than two years before they take up the Fellowship. Post-Doctoral candidates who have held their Doctorates for more than two years will receive NIS. 5,971 a month; $250** rental allowance***.
Doctoral Students: 9-12 months; NIS. 3814; No rental allowance
In addition:
(1) The Trust will pay for a roundtrip flight from the fellow's country of origin to Israel and back again. Full details regarding the repayment of the flight will be included in the letter of appointment sent to the Fellow. Family members accompanying a Fellow will not be eligible for reimbursement for their flight expenses.
(2) Half of the medical insurance if purchased & paid for in Israel. In any case the Trust will not pay for insurance that exceeds the standard package paid for by a normally healthy person.
