The Institute for Israel and Jewish Studies is delighted to offer a number of Undergraduate Fellowships combining support for study, service, or internship work in Israel and an invitation-only educational opportunity at Columbia University. Institute Fellows will be awarded an amount up to $1,000 in support of their program, study, or internship. In return, students become IIJS Israel Fellows, and during their summer in Israel will participate in a number of invitation-only educational and social opportunities to discuss matters related to Israeli culture and history. During the academic year, participants will be required to attend a set number of events - some designed specifically for Fellows – which will include discussions and presentations by leading national and international thinkers and writers in their field. Fellows will also be expected to participate in an evaluation survey upon return to campus, and aid in recruitment for future Fellows. (Please note that funding will be received at the end of summer, upon completion of the summer program or internship.)
