The Zuckerman Israeli Postdoctoral Scholars Program provides additional support for up to two years to Israeli PhD graduates who have been accepted to a postdoctoral program with a stipend at an American university. Candidates are encouraged to apply to a university that offers more specialized training than they would find in Israel.
Upon completion of the program, scholars are expected to return to the Israeli campuses from which they earned their doctorates and gain a faculty position at Israeli Universities.
