The Shalem Center's Institute for Philosophy, Political Theory, and Religion offers a full-time residency program and living stipend for scholars who wish to study the great works of the Western tradition side by side with classical Jewish sources. The postdoctoral program works from the premise that the sources of Jewish insight, experience and wisdom have yet to be fully brought into the tradition of Western thought. Shalem's postdoctoral fellows aspire to academic postings in Israel and around the world. The fellowship includes a weekly works-in-progress seminar; lectures by visiting scholars; completion of a significant independent research project known as the Shalem Essay; and participation in the broader intellectual life of the Center.
 
Fellowships are granted for one year to postdoctoral students who wish to pursue studies at the Shalem Center in Jerusalem.
