The Dartmouth-Kalaniyot program is a faculty-led initiative focused on building a stronger Dartmouth campus community while deepening ties between Dartmouth and researchers at Israeli universities. We work to promote excellence, with a focus on the Dartmouth mission of research, education, entrepreneurship, open collaboration, and respectful living in an international community.
Dartmouth-Kalaniyot is among the first members of a growing national Kalaniyot network of institutions of higher education—founded at MIT—whose mission is to support and strengthen academic connections with Israeli institutions of higher education. Kalaniyot has been endorsed by the Association of University Heads, Israel (VERA). Kalaniyot chapters each endorse a set of guiding principles or bylaws. You can learn more about Dartmouth's chapter through this recent article in the Dartmouth student newspaper.
Everything you need to settle in and explore Hanover, Dartmouth, and the Upper Valley — getting around town, hikes and swimming holes, restaurants, groceries, and practical services like banking, phones, and medical care.

We focus on two main goals that are mutually reinforcing: building a stronger Dartmouth campus community and deepening ties with researchers at Israeli universities.
Through fellowships and seed grants, Dartmouth-Kalaniyot brings the brightest researchers from Israel to Dartmouth as postdoctoral fellows, sabbatical visitors, and visiting students, empowering them to get involved in collaborative cutting-edge research, deepening academic ties and showcasing the brilliance of the startup nation. With its bi-national orientation, Dartmouth-Kalaniyot aligns with the many global programs that are already in Dartmouth's Global Partnership Portfolio.

Our mission is to deepen Dartmouth's ties with researchers at Israeli universities and work with university administration to ensure an inclusive campus.
Dartmouth researchers cooperate to advance knowledge without regard to national, ethnic, or religious background.
Dartmouth-Kalaniyot in the Sciences (DKS) provides funding for academic programming that fosters collaborations between faculty at Dartmouth and faculty at Israeli universities. DKS supports postdoctoral fellowships, visiting scholars, and collaborative research ventures. These programs strengthen scientific partnerships and advance knowledge through international collaboration.
Partner institutions include all VERA members.
