Visiting Researchers

Advanced graduate and doctoral students who wish to pursue research at the Hebrew University are invited to apply to the Visiting Research Fellow program. Students in this program enjoy privileges such as access to HebrewU libraries, archives, and online databases; participation in research projects at HebrewU labs; on-campus housing and health insurance coverage; visa assistance; student rates on public transportation; and the opportunity to build an international network of peers and mentors.

Students enrolled in master’s or doctoral programs abroad who have been invited by a HebrewU faculty member to collaborate on research for a period of up to one year may apply to this program. Visiting Research Fellows may not enroll in courses, with the exception of Modern Hebrew or Modern Standard Arabic language courses, for an additional fee.

Note: this status is only valid for one year, with no option to extend!
