Mandel initiatives (for Members of the Ph.D. honors program)
The Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel School for Advanced Studies in the Humanities seeks to encourage research-driven initiative among members of the Ph.D. honors program. To this end, grants will be offered in the 2025-2026 academic year to support creative academic activities outside the regular curriculum. These may include: international collaborations with students from Israel and abroad, organizing workshops and study groups (including support for projects initiated by Havruta), and similar initiatives.
Students are encouraged to collaborate with institutes and researchers both within and beyond the faculty and to raise additional funds and resources. All activities must take place in the Mandel Building.
Mandel commons (For all programs of the Mandel school)

Therefore, in the coming 2025/26 academic year, we are offering grants to finance creative academic activities outside of the regular program, such as: organizing workshops and learning groups that include members from all programs (Buber fellows, MA and PhD honors programs, Mandel- Scholion Center). Of course, colleagues from the Faculty of Humanities and other places are also welcome to participate and raise additional funds and resources.
