The Dan David Prize offers International Scholarships for Doctoral and Postdoctoral Students at Universities throughout the World and at Tel Aviv University in Israel

The Dan David Prize is a joint international enterprise, endowed by the Dan David Foundation and headquartered at Tel Aviv University. Scholarship can be taken at Israel and Abroad. The Dan David Prize recognizes and encourages innovative and interdisciplinary research that cuts across traditional boundaries and paradigms. It aims to foster universal values of excellence, creativity, justice, democracy and progress and to promote the scientific, technological and humanistic achievements that advance and improve our world. Ten scholarships are awarded to doctoral and post-doctoral students at universities throughout the world and ten scholarships at Tel Aviv University.

The Dan David Prize covers three time dimensions – Past, Present and Future – that represent realms of human achievement. Each year the International Board chooses one field within each time dimension. Your research must be relevant to one of this year’s chosen fields:

-The Past refers to fields that expand knowledge of former times.

-The Present recognizes achievements that shape and enrich society today.

-The Future focuses on breakthroughs that hold great promise for improvement of our world.
