Deadline Extension for Select Chapters

Columbia | Cornell | Dartmouth | MIT | Penn

Applications must be submitted via Interfolio by 11:59 PM Eastern time. Current applicants who have already submitted their materials to these chapters can make updates to their applications until the deadline.

Postdoctoral Fellowships

The Kalaniyot Postdoctoral Fellows Program supports recent Israeli PhD graduates to conduct their postdoctoral training at Kalaniyot chapters. The objective is for Israeli researchers to conduct cutting-edge research, build strong research ties within the US and maintain connections with their US colleagues after they return to Israel. 

Sabbatical Scholars

The Kalaniyot Sabbatical Scholars Program was created to bring established Israeli researchers to the US for their sabbatical year. The objective is for Israeli researchers to build strong personal ties during the program, enlarging the circle of US faculty who collaborate with Israelis across all areas of study.
