About Sackler Scholars

The Mortimer and Raymond Sackler Institute of Advanced Studies promotes and supports visits at Tel Aviv University by eminent experts in different academic fields from outside the University.

The Institute recognizes two types of visitors.

1. Sackler Lecturers are invited for a period of 1-2 weeks and are expected to deliver a few lectures during their visit.
2. Sackler Fellows are visitors who stay at the University for a period of 1-3 months for the primary purpose of interacting with Faculty members and graduate students. They are free of the regular responsibilities of visiting faculty members, including teaching, lecturing or administrative duties, although they are welcome to lecture in their field of expertise at their own initiative and under mutual agreement.
