Young Weizmann Scholars - excellence and diversity program

Several groups in the Israeli society are clearly underrepresented in institutions of higher education in general and in advanced degrees programs in science in particular.

The goal of the Young Weizmann Scholars Diversity Program is to encourage undergraduate science students affiliated with the following Israeli communities: Arab, Druze, Circassian, Ethiopian Jewry, Ultra-orthodox (חרדים), to explore the opportunity of pursuing graduate studies in Science. Students who grew up in the Israeli geographical or economic periphery (especially first-generation university students in their families) are welcome to apply as well.

For more details please visit the programs' webpage at the WIS Diversity website.

The application for summer 2025 is now open! For more information and to registrate press here.
