About Us
Founded in 1944, the American Committee for the Weizmann Institute of Science develops philanthropic support for the Weizmann Institute in Israel, and advances its mission of science for the future of humanity.
Dedicated to science education, the Weizmann Institute is actively planning for the future of science in a number of ways. And by opening the doors of the Institute—both real and virtual—we are sharing the creative spirit of discovery and inspiring the scientists of tomorrow.
The American Committee for the Weizmann Institute of Science wishes to reconnect with our FGS alumni, and strengthen ties among alumni themselves. Help us stay in touch and keep you apprised of the Institute’s latest research and of Weizmann events in your area.
The Davidson Institute of Science Education, built and supported by philanthropist William Davidson, offers programs geared toward a range of students: gifted kids, at-risk youth, minorities, girls. It also provides continuing education for teachers and online international courses.
Every summer since 1969, talented high-school graduates accepted into the Dr. Bessie F. Lawrence International Summer Science Institute come to campus and pursue their own research alongside Weizmann scientists.
Festivals, workshops, mobile science labs, Science on Tap, and an interactive, outdoor science museum: the Institute truly offers science for all.
The Weizmann Institute is fully dedicated to supporting and advancing women in science. This means providing guidance and resources to help women reach their full potential at the Institute and in their scientific careers.
