Abraham Socher, Associate Professor; Program Director
Shulamit Magnus, Associate Professor

The Program in Jewish Studies offers an interdisciplinary approach to the study of Jewish history and Judaism over several millennia from antiquity to the present in multiple cultural, religious and political settings in the Middle East, Europe, and the US.  It offers courses at various levels to give students an introduction to the field as well as immersion in select areas, with emphasis in all courses on the critical skills needed to understand Jewish experience and Jewish expression through religious and political texts, philosophy, and literature.
