Bachelor of Arts in Jewish Studies

Jewish studies courses explore all dimensions of Jewish life – past and present. Jewish studies majors look closely at post-Holocaust life and thought, Judaism and global politics, anti-Semitism, and other forms of racism. Students may focus on Jewish history throughout the world, the intercultural facets of diverse Jewish populations, interfaith dimensions, and Judaism and sexuality. They may look at how Jewish culture intersects with the media and the arts, including film, literature, television, theater, and the internet. You may wonder what you can do with a major or minor in Jewish studies. There are opportunities in multiple fields, including art, business, clergy, diplomacy, education, government, health care, journalism, law, media, nonprofits, and social work.
