Weizmann Institute of Science

Public Research university.

The Weizmann Institute of Science is one of the world’s leading multidisciplinary research institutions.

The Institute has five faculties – Mathematics and Computer Science, Physics, Chemistry, Biochemistry and Biology – and the faculties in turn are divided into 17 scientific departments. Over the years, work by Institute scientists has widely expanded our knowledge in these areas, created new research fields, and combined traditional scientific disciplines in multidisciplinary studies that steer research into new, exciting and often surprising paths.

In addition, the Feinberg Graduate School, the Institute’s university arm, trains research students pursuing graduate degrees.
