The Bloom Graduate School Researcher Development Program
The Bloom Graduate School at the University of Haifa aspires to provide an academic platform that promotes the excellence of our most valuable asset – our graduate research students. The school aims at fostering future academic and professional leaders who possess deep and broad expertise in their chosen fields, who are creative thinkers that challenge convention and dare to cross disciplinary boundaries by asking challenging questions and articulating new perspectives.
The program offers you an up-to-date, wide range of academic and experiential sessions to help gain the skills needed to carry out research professionally and effectively and to support ongoing career.
The program, held in English is organized around flexible curricular modules, not bounded by a particular discipline or approach, but rather aim to widen your views and perspectives of science and society through a combination of intellectual discussions and eclectic hands-on sessions in a variety of content areas.
The program is open to all post-doctoral and doctoral researchers (years 1-4 in the regular track, years 1-5 in the direct track) and sits alongside the subject-specific training based in your own Department/School.
Ph.D. students who began their program during the 2023-2024 academic year are required to attend two sessions of the training program to advance to the second year of their studies
Ph.D students commencing their studies from the academic year 2024-2025 onwards will be required to complete 7 sessions from the training framework during their studies.
You may complete 12 sessions in the training program which will grant you 2 hours of credit subject to graduation in the normative time period as defined in the Ph.D. studies regulations (4 years in the regular track and five years in the direct track) and pending approval of the supervisor and the departmental Ph.D. committee.
The Graduate Studies Authority and Bloom Graduate School retain the right to modify the training curriculum and lecture schedule, including canceling lectures with low enrollment. In this case, the concerned students will be notified of such changes and of their implications.
