Hebrew
The modern Hebrew program educates students in modern Hebrew language and literature, and also in earlier periods of literature, including Aramaic texts. The program is supported by courses in the programs of Judaic Studies, Linguistics, Comparative Literature, Political Science, and History. Professional and research interests of the faculty in Hebrew include literary history and criticism, linguistics, translation, language and technology, the teaching of Hebrew as a foreign language, and several aspects of culture. The program prepares students for academic, government, and business careers as well as employment in Jewish community activities. A flyer detailing requirements for the program is available in the departmental office. For more information, visit the Hebrew and Jewish Cultural Studies website.
