Doctoral candidates pursuing a dissertation in the history and culture of Central European Judaism are the target audience for the international Leo Baeck Fellowship Program. All projects have a connection to German-speaking Judaism, regardless of their time period, discipline (literature, philosophy, history, musicology), or geographic location (Europe, America, Israel).

The program provides one-year financial support as well as networking and scientific exchange opportunities. Doctoral candidates from any university in the globe, regardless of nationality, are eligible. The Leo Baeck Institute London and the Study Foundation collaborate to offer two workshops that bring the fellows together while they are still at their separate universities.
