The 18-month program by the American Friends of Hebrew University features in-depth leadership training, educational seminars, networking, and social opportunities. In addition, a week-long Israel experience, in which participants are hosted by the Hebrew University, provides a behind-the-scenes look at the start-up nation.

The program will provide historical context on the founding of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and its pivotal role in the formation and continued success of the state of Israel. The curriculum also introduces participants to the ground-breaking research taking place today and how HU innovations are improving lives around the world. In addition, the program offers exclusive training opportunities designed to strengthen leadership skills.

Hebrew University is a leading university founded by Albert Einstein and Sigmund Freud, amongst others. This year 20 individuals are accepted into this program from around the United States. Through this program, Milan will be attending leadership and academic seminars in Jerusalem, Israel, Palm Beach, San Francisco, and New York City.
