<span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;">Brandeis University invites applicants for The Edmond J. Safra Doctoral Fellowships in Sephardic Studies. The fellowships include an annual stipend for five years, health care coverage, and additional funds in
the amount of $5,000 per year for summer study (language preparation, travel for research, etc.). Prospective PhD students apply directly through a relevant department (Near Eastern and Judaic Studies, History, etc.) and indicate that they wish to be considered
for a Fellowship. Brandeis especially encourages applicants wishing to focus on the Jews of medieval Spain, the medieval Middle East, or the Ottoman Empire/Middle East through the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. To apply to Brandeis, see the following
