UG <p>The Judaic Studies minor offers courses in Judaism, Jewish thought, and Jewish culture through the ages. The Judaic Studies minor recognizes that Jews form a global community, and, thus, provides a global approach rather than a regional framework for exploring Judaism. This innovative approach encourages students to explore the historical role and contributions of Judaism beyond the Middle East and to appreciate the experiences that connect Jewish communities historically and in the present. To fulfill the requirements for the minor, students take a wide variety of courses from a range of disciplines, including English, religious studies, history, art history, languages, philosophy, and sociology.</p> 1903-12-30 2009 2007-11-07T17:35:13Z true Minor 150 Religious Studies RELI http://religious.gmu.edu/Reli_Studies_website_info/Judaic_Studies_Minor.htm Judaic Studies <p>Randi Rashkover<br /><a href="mailto:rrashkov@gmu.edu">rrashkov@gmu.edu</a><br />703.993.2778<br /> Robinson Hall B, Room 445B<br />4400 University Drive<br />Fairfax, VA 22030</p> LA 1903-12-30 1903-12-30 Minor 64 LA-MINOR-RELI-JS Undergraduate <p>Students pursuing this minor must complete 15 credits.</p> <ul> <li>Three core courses (9 credits): RELI 352, 370, 371</li> <li>Two elective courses (6 credits) chosen from HEBR 150, 160; HIST 465; RELI 211, 350, 372, 373; SOCI 450<br /></li> </ul> <p>Special topics courses and independent studies courses, when relevant, may be used to fulfill elective credits for the minor with prior written approval of the undergraduate direcctor.</p> 2009-08-25T18:24:09Z
