The summer semester consists of two weeks of intensive study at the Hebrew University's Mount Scopus campus in Jerusalem, Israel (see note below on the impact of Covid-19). This constitutes the " Israel experience" component of the program, and it is critical to the training of our educators.
During this period, students attend classes from Sunday to Thursday from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 or 6:00 p.m., to complete a total of six academic credits. The academic program also includes educational tours in Jerusalem and throughout the country, and cultural and recreational activities. Students can choose to stay in the university dormitories or in other housing of their choice.
Dorm subsidies may be available for Masa Israel Teaching Fellows. For more information on available scholarships, click here.
