The opening of a Post-Graduate School at the Weizmam Institute of Science was announced today by Dewey D. Stone, chairman of its board of governors, and chairman of the board of directors of the American Committee for the Weizmann Institute of Science.
Mr. Stone stated that the new educational policy at Israel’s scientific center of pure research was in accordance with the central activity of the Institute–the pursuit of basic research: “It will answer the increasing need in Israel for scientists both highly specialized and broadly instructed. The emphasis of our Post-Graduate School will be on training for research with due weight given to a thorough advanced scientific education.” Only students holding a Master of Science degree will be admitted to these advanced courses.
