International Students

The Racah Institute of Physics hosts various talented students from around the world. Our vibrant international community consists largely of postdoctoral fellows but also MSc and PhD students.
Most choose to live in Jerusalem, a diverse and vibrant city. The city is an international center for entrepreneurship. It is modern and thriving. But Jerusalem also has a rich history and culture important to much of the world. Considered a holy city by three of the world’s major religions, Jerusalem combines both tradition and innovation.
