Research Grants
In order to encourage serious and sustained research into
the analysis of phenomena and processes in contemporary Jewish
life that contribute to assimilation, and into successful
counter-strategies, the Rappaport center offers research grants
to scholars, thus enabling them to carry out original research
culminating in a research paper appropriate for inclusion
in the center’s publication series (see "Publications").
Researchers interested in conducting studies in topics which
are relevant to the Rappaport Center are requested to send
a written proposal that will include a short description of
the proposed study and its predicted contribution to the promotion
of the Rappaport Center goals.
Ph.D. Scholarships
The Rappaport Center offers a limited number of scholarships
to outstanding graduate students at Bar Ilan University, who
are enrolled in the Interdisciplinary Program in Contemporary
Jewish Studies and whose topic of research bears upon the
challenges of assimilation in communities of the contemporary
Jewish diaspora.
Students who wish to apply for a scholarship should write
to Prof. Judy Baumel, baumelj@mail.biu.ac.il
