Jewish Studies MA

UCL (University College London)

Gain expertise, develop your knowledge of Hebrew and prepare for a future career in research or across multiple industries through this degree. Taught from the only Hebrew and Jewish Studies department in the UK, the Jewish Studies MA at UCL enables you to choose from a selection of modules that cover all areas, periods and aspects of Jewish studies. You’ll graduate with skills ideal for academic careers or professional roles in education, the media and more. All students are introduced to the disciplines, theories, methods, and practice of learning and research in Jewish Studies, and those without prior knowledge of Hebrew learn the language at elementary level. An extensive range of optional modules are available in Jewish history, literature, languages, and Jewish thought, from antiquity to the modern world. The MA is equally designed for: students with a background in Jewish studies who wish to further their studies, with or without focus on a specific area. students with a background in other, relevant disciplines who wish to learn Hebrew and/or develop their knowledge of Jewish studies. students wishing to progress to doctoral research, or to pursue relevant professional careers.
