BECOMING A JEWISH STUDIES MINOR
The path into the Jewish Studies Minor begins by taking at least one Jewish Studies course and meeting with the Director of Undergraduate Studies to plan and declare your Minor. Students are assigned a Minor advisor who guides them through course selection and related opportunities connected to the program.

One course each from the following three categories as approved by the minor advisor:
