Israel’s economy is becoming increasingly knowledge-based – with the second-largest number of startup companies per capital in the world after the United States. The average high-tech career salary is approximately $85,000, almost twice the non-high tech average. With the number of STEM job openings set to grow significantly in the next decade, increasing diversity in STEM fields will be critical for achieving growth, cohesion and equality in our economy and the broader society.
Since its establishment 50 years ago, the University of Haifa, Israel's most pluralistic university, has led efforts to promote the participation of Israeli Arab and Druze young adults in higher education. The majority of Israel’s Arab population lives in northern Israel, where the University of Haifa has developed a reputation for its academically challenging and supportive environment.
We invite you to partner with us by supporting minority and female PhD candidates who demonstrate academic and research excellence in STEM fields.

The University of Haifa is committed to promoting gender equality and empowering women in higher education. Women's empowerment expands economic growth, promotes social development, strengthens family life and is vital to the realization of a prosperous future.
As an institution of higher learning that has a longstanding commitment to equality and diversity, we are proud that women comprise between 60-70% of our undergraduate, graduate and doctoral degree programs. Our diverse student body, a mirror of the full spectrum of Israeli society, is a valuable asset to the University, the city of Haifa and the entire northern region of Israel. Many of our students come from underrepresented Israeli populations and need our valuable support to thrive and improve their socio-economic prospects.
Student scholarships are the most valuable gift we can provide—the ultimate means for social mobility, for a vibrant and dynamic society. These scholarships will help young women realize their dreams and pursue careers in fields such as STEM, computer science, information systems, education, and psychology.
