The Gildenhorn Institute for Israel Studies at the University of Maryland (just outside Washington, D.C.) is seeking applicants for its graduate program (M.A. or Ph.D.) in Israel Studies who will begin their graduate studies in the fall of 2016. Students apply to specific departments (e.g. History, Government and Politics, Public Policy, etc.) and indicate their interest in doing their dissertation or thesis in Israel Studies. Full or otherwise significant fellowships will be offered to those students accepted.
Students will be offered the opportunity to study for a semester or a year at Tel Aviv University, pursuant to the agreement for exchange of faculty and students between UMD and TAU. This is in addition to any Hebrew language study that may be needed, as well as a research year in Israel.
Deadline: varies by area of focus
