Max and Hilde Kochmann Summer School for PhD Students

Max and Hilde Kochmann Summer School for PhD Students in European-Jewish History and Culture

University of Sussex (Brighton, UK) 29 June – 2 July 2025 

The Sussex Weidenfeld Institute of Jewish Studies at the University of Sussex (https://www.sussex.ac.uk/research/centres/jewish-studies/) in cooperation with the Center for Jewish Studies of the University of Graz and the European Association of Israel Studies invite applications for the 2025 Max and Hilde Kochmann Summer School for PhD students in Jewish, Holocaust and Israel studies.

The Kochmann Summer School brings together early career researchers who are currently working on topics in Jewish history and culture, Israel Studies and digital humanities, giving them the opportunity to present and discuss their projects in an informal and friendly atmosphere with leading scholars in the field. The Summer School continues the tradition of previous events, creating an interdisciplinary network of new scholars engaged in areas of European-Jewish Studies from the early modern period to the present day. In 2025 we particularly encourage scholars exploring the intersection between digital humanities and Holocaust commemoration to apply, as well as those engaged in Israel studies.

Applicants must be PhD students at the time the Summer School commences. 

Candidates are invited to send, via email, a 500-word proposal outlining their PhD project, a short CV and one reference from their supervisor or relevant scholar in the field. Applications must be in English and sent as one PDF document to: Diana Franklin d.franklin@sussex.ac.uk

For enquiries please contact:

Gideon Reuveni g.reuveni@sussex.ac.uk

The Sussex Weidenfeld Institute will offer a travel allowance of up to £300 for candidates coming from Europe. Candidates from Israel, the United States and other non-European countries will be considered but may be asked to contribute towards their travel costs. Accommodation costs will be covered for all students.
