Hillel at Brandeis University has been specifically selected for targeted recruitment for this exciting summer opportunity!! Birthright
Israel Excel is a selective 10-week summer fellowship program in Israel for talented American Jewish undergraduate students
who are pursuing careers in business, technology, biotech, marketing and social media. Each Birthright Israel Excel Fellow will
intern at an outstanding multinational Israeli company, travel to Israeli sites, meet with prominent members of the business,
political and academic communities, and join an exclusive community of future global Jewish business and technology leaders.
Upon return from Israel, Birthright Israel Excel participants will be paired with business mentors in the U.S. The goal of the mentor
program is to further broaden the participants' understanding of global economics, decision making and social responsibility.
