Jewish Studies is an interdisciplinary program of study which may be taken in conjunction with many existing programs in the Arts and other faculties.

Jewish history, culture, civilization and religion are filled with a wealth of traditions, achievements, and knowledge passed down through the centuries. It is the goal of the Jewish Studies program that this treasured heritage be shared with an international community of Jews and non-Jews who are seeking wider knowledge and understanding.

The Jewish Studies program presents courses which bear directly on Jewish civilization and its importance for the Jewish and non-Jewish world.
