Minor
in Jewish Studies
The Minor in Jewish Studies
consists of a minimum of 19 units. Jewish Studies encourages undergraduate
students to acquire the academic breadth and depth to comprehend the major
issues, themes, and concepts of a culture and heritage that has had a distinct
impact on world civilization. The inter-disciplinary minor consists of
courses in a variety of disciplines, including literature, history, religion,
geography, Hebrew language, and politics. Students will expand their understanding
of the broader dynamics of the Jewish experience through different eras
and geographic settings, both in Israel and the Diaspora.
