Hebrew & Arabic Language - Brandeis University

Hebrew & Arabic Language from Brandeis University is a Campus Bachelor Area Studies degree that prepares you for a Liberal Arts career. The goal of the Hebrew Program at Brandeis is to enable students to function in the Hebrew language at all levels and in all skills. In terms of both the means and the goal of the program, a special emphasis is given to the personal needs of each student. For this reason we developed at Brandeis a multi-track curriculum that allows students in different levels to select those courses which best interest them, fit their abilities, and correspond to their needs. Students may choose courses that emphasize specific skills, such as reading, writing, speaking, or grammar, or courses that are based on content, such as literature , film, and theater. In addition, the Program recognizes the needs of the greater community of Hebrew learners in America by providing instruction and guidance on various issues of Hebrew language acquisition. The Program offers a Hebrew seminar each summer which enables learners from various backgrounds to benefit from the unique resources of Brandeis University . We also offer an opportunity to receive training in Hebrew teaching as part of our Teacher's Certificate program. The Program offers approximately 28 different courses overall. These include beginning, intermediate, and advanced level courses. The advanced level courses vary greatly and include an introduction to classical Hebrew , literature courses, and courses on contemporary Israeli culture, such as on films, on theater, on Jerusalem, and on Israeli women.

Placement is determined according to the individual level of each student through a placement test administered by the Program. View more details on Brandeis University .
