About University:

Weizmann Institute of Science

The Weizmann Institute of Science is one of the world’s leading multidisciplinary basic research institutions in the natural and exact sciences. It is located in Rehovot, Israel, just south of Tel Aviv.

The Weizmann Institute is comprised of approximately 250 experimental and theoretical research groups across five faculties—Biology, Biochemistry, Chemistry, Mathematics and Computer Science, and Physics. The research groups are led by PIs who explore a myriad of scientific questions, often through interdisciplinary collaborations – a hallmark of the Institute.

Institute scientists were pioneers in the field of cancer research in Israel. Others planned and built the country’s first electronic computer, one of the first in the world; yet others founded the first nuclear physics department and erected a particle accelerator next door. They were the first to establish a company for transferring knowledge from academia to industry (YEDA Research and Development), and they initiated the founding of a science-based industrial park near the Institute. Today, insights that emerge from Weizmann Institute labs help provide a fundamental understanding of the human body and the universe, and lead to advances in medicine, technology and the environment.

Globally, the Weizmann Institute is ranked among the top institutions in numerous different rankings, including:

  • 7th in Europe, 1st in Israel for the total number of research grants obtained from the European Research Council (ERC) for the years 2007-2019;
  • 6th globally, 1st outside the US for the Nature Innovation Index, 2017, which recognizes institutions with global reputations for high-quality research and whose published work is having a disproportionately high impact relative to their size
  • 8th for research quality in a weighted (proportional) ranking by the Centre for Science and Technology Studies (CWTS) of Leiden University, the Netherlands, in 2020
  • Top 3 by the Nature Index 2019 normalized ranking
  • Among the top 25 research institutes/universities in the world in two main categories by U-Multirank in 2019 –Top Cited Publications and Patents Awarded

Graduate studies at the Weizmann Institute of Science are conducted through the Feinberg Graduate School (FGS), which was established in 1958. FGS offers a unique multidisciplinary setting that enables its MSc, PhD and postdoctoral students to learn from the best principal investigators, working with recipients of numerous prestigious awards, among them Nobel laureates and Turing Award laureates, in cutting-edge research facilities. The training that our students receive later leads them to senior posts in academia, industry, government and scientific and medical research.
